Description Samaresh Panda 2006-08-01 17:51:09 UTC 
Currently XAM doesn't allow reordering of the children. For example, if a
component's children are A, B, C and during sync if your model wants to reorder
them to, lets say C, B, A XAM doesn't allow that. You have to create a copy the
components, delete the existing one and add the newly copied one at the correct
index. So it'll be C', B', A'.

This is a very difficult bug to reproduce and has been created to track the fix,
post-beta.

Later, I'll add an example to reproduce the same.

This is identical to issue 77328, which is a P2 RFE. I suggest one of these two
issues be marked as duplicate. It's just a matter of whether this is considered
a defect or an enhancement.
Comment 2 Nam Nguyen 2006-08-01 18:53:14 UTC 
Its up to Sam.  If the reordering sequence of component copy-remove-add produce
errors then it is a bug.  Else if it is just pure convenience and performance
then it is duplicate of the enhancement.
Comment 3 Nam Nguyen 2006-08-07 07:56:06 UTC 
Mark duplicate of the enhancement for reorder api.
