Comment 2 for bug 1154131

I have the same problem.

At lest I found a workaround:
Edit the .sch file in a text editor of your choice, and rearange the blocks of $Sheet to $EndSheet in your favour order.

When you reopen the file in eeshema, the sheet order has changed.

It would be a necessary feature for eeschema.
My problem especially was, that I changed a large project, and added some sheets. And then the sheet numbers got mixed up, so that for example all the U6xx components where on sheet 3. And the newly added parts on this sheet got the name U3xx, and didn't match to their neighboured U6xx-parts on the sheet.

What you can not change with this workaround is the order of sub-sub-sheets. these will allways get a number after the parent sheet (= sub-sheet). When adding sub-sub-sheets to an existing project, this will lead to the problem described above, unless you add such a sub-sub-sheet only to the last sub-sheet.

could this feature be expected in a near future version?
