Description (last modified by t-bone) (diff)

Official screenshot of More Tools shows items in alphabetical order. None of my installs have ever shown sorted. Is there a way to enable this, or manually sort them?

I've just created a blank profile, and after having only installed Update Notifier (and inheriting Java, .NET, and Skype), the non-sorting persists.

More Tools does not attempt to alphabetize or otherwise change the order of the items in its menu. It takes them as they appear, and moves them one by one. If they are alphabetized in the screenshot, it is pure coincidence based on what set of extensions were installed when the screenshot was taken.

It may have something to do with the order that the extensions were installed into Firefox. I tend to install mine in alphabetical order, off the list I keep. And those in the screenshot all happen to have menu items that line up directly with their names.
