Feature Request: Flexi view group by label/text/notes or user grouping field in patch

I think it would be nice to have a flexi view that combined "patched" and a new "group by label".  I often use labels as purpose/system info I.E. Warm Front.  In this proposed view, channels could have standard separators appear between channels with different labels and smaller separators or a small gap to show missing unpatched channels.  this would allow you to quickly see in the tombstone view where "systems" change and which channels belong together.  

It could be even more flexible if there was a "grouping" field in patch.

  • Sounds to be not a bad idea. I like my channels grouped by their purpose. One way to it is to number the lights respectively. For example:
    Warm fronts would be ch 1 thru 6, cold fronts could be 11 thru 16. If you switched off the group by five feature, you get this nicely grouped few in flexi patched.
    Downside of that is, you end up sometimes with pretty high (ie 4digit) channel numbers.
