SortUIListBox

A function added by the New Vegas Script Extender.

Description

Reorders a UI list box such as the item list of the Barter menu.

Syntax

[help]

SortUIListBox pathName:string sortSpec:string

Example

SortUIListBox "BarterMenu/*:0/*:5/*:9" "-_IsBarterSelected,@string,-#_value"

Sorts the barter menu alphabetically, and then by item condition, with all items selected for barter before all other items.

Notes

• pathName gives the name of the list box to sort, using the same syntax as GetUIFloat.
• sortSpec defines how the list box items should be sorted. A sort specification looks like

"keySpec0[,keySpec1[,...]][$destinationPath[$incrementPath]]"

where [] indicate optional parts.

• A keySpec looks like

"[-][#][@]path"

where

 "-" reverses the normal sort order for this key
 "#" sorts this string field numerically (default is alphabetic sort)
 "@" sorts this item name disregarding quanties and mod indicators
   E.g. "9mm Pistol (2)" and "9mm Pistol+" sort as "9mm Pistol"

• destinationPath describes which trait to modify. The default is _y.
• incrementPath describes what value to increment destinationPath by. The default is height.
