What it does

Sort tabs

Issue view > Markdown panel > sort button

Switches the tabs between newest first and A to Z, for everyone who opens the issue.

#A few things that catch people out

  • While the button is hidden, the panel still uses the order last chosen on that issue.

  • The Edit and Add buttons stay visible on narrow panels.

Found it? Good.
