Suggestion 1: Add hierarchy view to Manage Grids Dialogue
This is the same function presently in the "All Fields" section of the properties pane. Fields can be shown in an alphabetical list or in an outline that you can edit.
Provides a simple way to organize and find grids. For example, 1) group grids by topic headers; 2) hide little-used grids; 3) hide large sets of grids that would otherwise clutter the view.
Many of these things can be done using Forms, the Home Grid etc. But I think a hierarchical list provides a direct, simple way to organize grids that could be especially helpful for new users. Seems intuitive to organize grids in "Manage Grids".
Suggestion 2: Display "Description" column in Manage Grids Dialogue
It's faster and easier to find a grid by scanning down a list of descriptions displayed next to the grid names (vs having to click on each grid and read the description displayed on the right).

Great ideas! I hope it's…
Great ideas! I hope it's okay if I add another idea to this thread -- it would be useful if the Manage Grids dialogue window would open with the cursor in the search field (this is already implemented in the Fields dialogue).
