Table view - make sorting order stick

In the table view you can sort each column in ascending or descending order. Unfortunately this does not stick, i.e. when you leave the table view to another view and then return to table view, that sorting has gone.

The same actually applies to resizing of columns. Changing the width of a column in table view doesn't stick either.

This is very basic functionality and is a must to improve the user experience.

I agree. it is very annoying to have to configure all the time the format that I want, because the system takes away my configuration and returns to the original one.

This is THE biggest "gotcha" that has halted the widespread adoption of Wrike here.  As part of an early adopter team we had to get used to this problem but if it doesn't get fixed soon we'll be forced to move on to another product.

We would like to create a template for Table View that meets our needs: columns, column order, column width, sort order. We would like to ave the template then set it as the default for every new folder or project for our team. Thx.

Hey @Everyone! The New Table View has sticky column sorting and width settings (your changes stay in place when you leave and come back to the view). Please check it out and let me know what you think about it 🙂

This looks much cleaner that the original Table View and I'm pleasantly surprised to see that the subtasks default to collapsed! That was an unexpected improvement - I was happy enough for sticky width settings. I'll come back with more after I use this for a bit but wanted to share this first. I live out of table view and this is such an improvement already. Thanks for listening to everyone!

@Lisa - since reports can be based on table view, will they eventually pull from this newer version? The collapsed tasks would be helpful there also.
