Similar to the other list controls (CT_LISTBOX, CT_LISTNBOX, CT_COMBO), CT_CONTROLS_TABLE could need some sorting command. It already supports setting values via ctSetData and ctSetValue. ctSort could maybe use the data, since the entries have no text themselves.
| Listbox | ControlsTable (new) |
| lbSort | ctSort |
| lbSortByValue | ctSortByValue |
Can you add a screenshot of how a ControlsTable looks like? No idea what that is.
How do you sort combo? is there a cbSort or does lbSort also work on combo?
Can you add a script to create a simple ControlsTable, with example usage of the (to be added) sort command?

I have attached an example mission which replicates the example image from the BIKI (https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/CT_CONTROLS_TABLE).

lbSort does work on CT_COMBO.

Controls table rely heavily on their config, so they are not really scriptable and there is the base class in the main config is not usable. I have added some example usage to the attached mission.
When sorting the controls table it might be necessary to sort only a range of indices, since the user can insert headers in between. So something like this:
_ctrl ctSort [[LIST OF INDICES], AscendingOrDescending];
Or in accordance to the weird syntax that lbSort uses:
ctSort [_ctrl , [LIST OF INDICES], "ASC/DESC"];
And same for ctSortByValue
