Has anyone else noticed a change recently in the data editor when picking a column from a dropdown? One example would be picking a column for a table component. I think the choices in the dropdown top to bottom used to match the order of the columns in the table left to right. Now I can’t figure out what determines the order. It’s not a problem if you’re searching for a column, but if you’re used to drilling down through grouped column names, it’s kind of disorienting. ---
