Well, copying that registry field from the client to the server correctly updated the column order presets, no problem.
I just confirmed that column header order presets are NOT propagated from a server MC to a client MC like playlists are. After copying the registry entry as above, I deleted that particular entry on the client so it would have no presets defined. Starting the server and client MC from scratch, after 15 minutes the column header presets don't show up, and of course they don't take on the same display they do on the server.
Is this an error, oversight or omission? Could these column presets be allowed to propagate from server to client? Or can a default presets be changed somewhere?
There don't seem to be any Smartlist capabilities for column display order, either. Or maybe there is, and I don't recognize it.
Thoughts or ideas?
