[umenu] would be an option, but I assume you don't like it because you have to click to see the list.

You may look at [bach.tree] in outline mode. The 'bach' package should be in your Max Package Manager, just activate it.

Don't know if [bach.tree] is good for you, but I use it for all my preset lists. You cannot sort it, but you can clear it, feed new content of any length and get a scrollable, clickable list.

Below is a screenshot of an editor I am currently working on:

here's a more direct cellblock oriented solution-- just refer your cellblock to a coll and edit the coll (via cellblock). you can use coll messages like sort as well as (in this example) delete:

Oh, nice, better than my suggestion. I clearly underestimated cellblock.

I may switch from bach.tree to cellblock for simple clickable lists. Similar handling, automatic coll sync, better scroll and no problem with clicking in empty space. [bach.tree] supports expandable lists (with sub-item hierarchy) but I rarely need that.

I take your idea Terry, it's exactly what i need
