Dear Fadi,

thank you for your question. The models in the explorer tree are sorted according to the following logic:
+ Modelgroups (sorted alphabetically, [0 .... z])
+ Models (sorted alphabetically, [0 .... z])

The sorting is supported by modeltype icons and model status/categorization views in the explorer. The status/categorization can be freely defined and is visible in the explorer when selected by the user. To configure this status, please add the following lines in the Modi Library attribute. The example assumes the existence of a modelattribute of type ENUMERATION called "Model category" with the possible values "In process", "Ready", "Reviewed". Depending on the selected value, the explorer is graphically enhanced by displaying the information of the attribute. The bitmaps can be self-defined and are in the example below made available through the file management functionality of ADOxx.

2DISPLAYED_MODELATTR "Model category" default-hidden
3enum-value1:"In process" bitmap1:"db:\\draft.bmp"
4enum-value2:"Ready" bitmap2:"db:\\qa.bmp"
5enum-value3:"Reviewed" bitmap3:"db:\\released.bmp"

In addition to the above example on model categorisation and visualisation, the mentioned possibily to define icons for different modeltypes is described below. This configuration is performed in the Modi Library attribute:

1...
2MODELTYPE "Example model" from:none plural:"Example models" [b]bitmap:"db:\\modeltypeicon.bmp"[/b]
3...

The bitmap for the model type must be created in a format of 16x16 pixels and 16 colors (standard palette) and made available to ADOxx using a file pointer (DB or file space).
If no bitmap file is specified, a default bitmap is taken.

As a starting point to create new icons, please find attached a template bitmap that can be used to create modeltype icons (mtempty.bmp)
