Is there a way to set which weapons print on the front side of the character sheet?

After fiddling around some, I've figured out that the weapons are sorted on the character sheet in an alphabetical manner. To get around that program feature, you can create a custom weapon and take advantage of the ability to name the weapon in the custom weapon window. you can make this work for normal weapons buy creating a custom weapon with no other feature other than a custom name. The only thing is that the default name of the weapons is also included on the descriptor line with the custom name.

For example, if you create a custom heavy mace and name it "A Spiffy Mace", then that weapon will show up as A Spiffy Mace, Heavy Mace.

Small price to pay for being able to sort things properly. Also, you can get around that simply, by using a custom name of "a" or something unobtrusive.

Other tips is that a space always sorts to the top. You can also put spaces after your custom name to move the Additional part of the name off.

In example I have a character with a Masterwork Scimitar and I wanted that to be on the very top. So I gave it a custom name of the following leaving off the actual ".
Code:
 "                     Scimitar(MW)                  "
This way it actually printed on the character sheet as Scimitar(MW) and it was even centered and do to the blanks it was sorted to the very top of of the list and will always print first. Even before a weapon called "A spiffy mace".

Just another small thing I have found.

From another thread, adding this ability is on the HL to-do list: http://forums.wolflair.com/showpost....97&postcount=4.
