Re: tree behavior sorting

Here is a tutorial I wrote a while ago that does what you describe.
I've only used it with <= RC2 so not sure if it will work with RC3,
but I'm guessing (hoping!) it does.

I did run into a few bugs when I was playing with the tree behavior,
but I think they have all been fixed.

Cheers,
Adam
