Can I order the enum values in intellisense?

Question

I have an eum type with 5 members. Is it possible to tell intellisense to order them the way I want?

public enum numbers
{
    zero,
    one,
    two,
    three,
    four
}

Intelisense shows (in alpha):

four
one
three
two
zero

Answer 1

No you can't as far as I know. Intellisense orders them alphabetically.

Answer 2

I think the only way to do that would be to do something like

public enum numbers
{
    num_00,
    num_01,
    num_02,
    num_03,
    num_04
}

Answer 3

well if you use this kind of declaration for enum intellisense will sort by the first character

by diffrewnt kind of declartion i mean you can start the enum like _0 _1 _2 like that where _ will have the same previlage and then 0 1 2 etc will be used to reorder it.

Answer 4

No you cant. But the Visual Studio team has considered the suggestion even though not exactly the way you would want it. But hey, its a start.
