Actually it isn't random, but the sort order might not be what you expect. It looks like (regard as meta code)
ORDER BY isdomain, isArray, typname



This doens't mean anything to me. What I am after is to not have to
scroll up and down searching for the type. If there is no order by clause
that will suffice,


There *is* an ordering clause, look at that pseudo code above.

then you could add code in PgAdmin itself to do
the ordering. What I think would be a good order is
builtin types first
user defined types next
schema table types next (ordered by schema)
alphabetic within each group. Does that make sense?



Michael,


please don't send private mail. Everything should be discussed publicly; we're Open Source. Besides, private mail screws up my inbox processing; your answers might well go unnoticed to spam.

As I said we'll be refactoring types handling. You might find find the current ordering not helpful, others might do so (at least I like domains first, because I use domains to abstract from real database types, increasing portability)

Regards,
Andreas
