suggestion: support to adjust the order of milestone

[thinktwice]

sometimes i have created several milestones, but their order isn't correct, so i need to adjust their order. but at right now, i have to remove and add them again, as you might guess maybe i have aldready created many tickets depend on them. thanks for reading my post :)

Milestones are "adjusted" in the chronological order, i.e. in the natural order as milestones are tied to a timeline by definition.

Could you elaborate your need ?

chronological order is best choice in most cases. but in some special cases user might need to insert a milestone , for example i have created milesone1, milestone2, milestone3, but later i want to insert another milestone between milesone1 and milestone2, surelly i have to rename the old milestone3 to milestone4. when i browser the milestone list i want to see

milestone1 milestone2 milestone3 milestone4

that's why i need the feature to support adjust the order manually. thanks for you reply :)

Chronological order is not tied to the creation time of the milestone, but to the completion date of the milestone. Therefore if you insert a milestone whose completion date is after the completion date of milestone1 and before the completion date of milestone2, it will appear between these existing milestones.

Isn't that what you're looking for?

Milestone ordering is described in #2209. I don't see what we can do better here.

Please reopen if you have more information about why the implemented order doesn't work for you.
