How to Change the Order of 'Fields and Measures' Items in Ad Hoc Calculated Measure Window

Issue Description

I create a calculated field in ad hoc view, but the item list of "Fields and measures" lined up at this time

is different from the order specified at domain creation, it is hard to select.

Is there a way to keep the order specified during domain creation when creating calculated fields in ad hoc view?

By default, Fields and Measures items are sorted by item label alphabeticaly.

The sort order is coded in a Javascript file:

webappsjasperserver-proscriptsadhoccalculatedFieldsviewExpressionEditorView.js

renderFields function definition, line ~93:

.sortBy("label")

Commenting out that line resuls in displaying items in the same order they are defned in domain designer.

In order to test the solution, you have to either switch JasperReports Server to use non-optimized scripts

or add &_opt=false parameter to the URL.

Once you test that fix works for you, you need to re-build optimized scripts as described in Ultimate Guide:
