# Sort Elements

This operator is used to randomize the indices of vertices, edges and faces in order to influence the result of the randomization particularly for Random Loop Extrude and Random Panels when they generate panel islands.

{% hint style="info" %}
*This operator only appears in the **Mesh** submenu when the active object is in edit mode.*

This is generally not needed but just in case some parts of the topology keep generating patterns that you don't like then you can use this to change how the seed property randomizes these areas.
