In the meantime we have an article that clarifies the concerns about the new and old table:

Thanks for that @Daniele_Purrone, @Or

The existing column organization in the old table can be done by dragging it to the desired column with the mouse. I know this is possible in the new table with chart navigation, but if it's not visible to the user, it's no longer possible.

Another point is column sorting within chart navigation. Currently, to get it to apply an alphabetical sort (ascending or descending), for example, you have to do it manually and apply the sorting. So, if I add a new column afterward, it gets lost in the sorting, and I have to go through the sorting process again.

It would be nice if it were possible to apply a sorting function to the columns that appear in chart navigation, like this:

You are of course welcome @MatheusC , but you should open an Ideation post with your ideas and link it here (it's okay to include all the details in your post, of course) to make sure it's visible to the Qlik product team. I'm not sure they'll be following this thread.

Thank you

[MatheusC]

Great, I did that, thanks.

I've edited the post to now link to the requested ideas.
