Sort clients on MS Switch dashboard

Maybe I missed this somewhere in previous post. If so, I apologize.  I like the "new version" of the dashboard for everything except the switch clients summary.I can't figure out what it is currently sorted by, much less how to change it into something useful to me.

 

With the old version it was click on the column name and done.  Switching to the new version, there appears to be no sort applied on default at all, and I can't figure out how to sort them myself. I can do this from Network=>Clients, but then I cannot easily tell what switch it's on. Switching=>Switches=>[Switch Name]=>Clients can obviously tell me what switch it is on, but then I can't sort it into anything.

 

I realize I could download from the Network Clients page, put it into Excel, and then sort it to my heart's content. That just seems a bit much to see what devices are connected to Switch 5, port 17 without going into a Switching=>Switch Ports=>Page 7, scroll down half of a page.

 

Am I missing something, or will I be required to jump back and forth between the old and new versions?

 

Thank you,

Jim

@JAC-MO I concur with your observations regarding the new dashboard version and have used the feedback button in the lower RH corner with similar feedback about the new dashboard limitations (column sorting, client count).  Like @cmr mentioned, staying with the old version has better suited some of us more than the new dashboard look provides.  And some of us also like the new dashboard version too however it's just a bit more limited than the new dashboard version.

Kind of a big deal

Is there any reason to switch to the new page, as you said, the list isn't sortable and the other pages simply use more space to display less...

Thank you. At least I wasn't missing something obvious.  Gotta go with functionality, no matter the looks. Old version for the win, I guess.
