Can we order the widgets in Databricks?

I am trying to order the way that widgets are shown in Databricks, but I cannot. For example, I have two text widgets (start date and end date). Databricks shows "end_date" before "start_date" on top, as the default order is alphabetical. Obviously, I can add "1-start_date" and "2-end_date" to order them in visualziation, but it is not nice. I am wondering if there is an option to manually sort the widgets.

Hi @Reza Rajabi this is a known thing and we have a feature request to fix this. I do not have an ETA on when this feature will be available. So for now to avoid the widgets being in alphabetical order, you need to use the prefix like 1,2,3.. or A,B,C.. to get them as per your requirement.
