Hi

First: you're vpn client is great. thanks for that.

We support dozens of companys, for all of them we use seperat connections. It would be great to have a sort function (by ABC) in the client overview.

Is that maybe possible?

Thanks from switzerland

Hi Juerg,

We take all feedback on board, however I'm afraid we can't make any promises if or when we'll adopt any suggestions.

Thanks,
James

I could really use this feature as well. Should be easy to implement. Additionally I would like to see a search function. Finding a VPN connection between a list of more than 100 tunnels is no fun.

The whole reason I bought the client is because OpenVPN GUI has a connection limit of 50.

Hi aapje,

Thanks for the feedback. These are both features we would like to implement and are on our list. I'm sorry we can't give you a solid timeframe of when they might be added.

Regards,
Eric

Any update on this topic please?
If not possible to sort the connections, maybe you can add a search field on top of the connections window?

Hi [dr.greenthumb],

I'm afraid we don't have anything we can report at this stage.

However I will add that most of the time when we get asked about sorting connections, people aren't aware that Viscosity supports customising the order of connections by clicking and dragging them in the Preferences window to change their order. It's possible to re-arrange them into any order you like, as well as sort them into folders (using the New Folder option from the "+" button).

If you have hundreds or thousands of connections, we can understand that re-ordering them by hand isn't ideal, and so we do hope to add an alphabetical sort option in a future update.

Cheers,
James

Hi James,

Thanks for the feedback.

Yes, I'm aware that customizing the order can be done by clicking and dragging.
But after installing an update the connections go back in a random order.


Cheers,
Dr. G.
