Default Re: Is there any way to change the way spells are listed?

It's not that difficult, but undoubtely time-consuming. If ever IW would be kind enough to "publish" the spell manual/descriptions in digital Version it'll be of great help .
A quick reference for spells would do nothing to help the issue of how hard it is to select spells within the game, which is what the comments here have been about.

The scrolling list of spells is a moderate inconvenience in any case, once a lot of spells have been researched. But the fact that the spells show up in different locations depending on the sequence magic was researched is ... maddening.

If the spells had a consistent sorting order, life would be much easier on the players, regardless of the sorting order : Primary sort key element, secondary key power, or primary sort key power, or primary sort key type of magic (thaumaturgy, enchantment, etc) - anything that would be consistent from game to game.

But it's not likely to improve any time soon, regardless of player frustration.
