# Load dataset
data(query_exons)

# sort elements in each GRangesList in descending coordinate order
query_exons_desc <- sorteach(query_exons, dplyr::desc(start))

# sort elements in each GRangesList in its order in transcript
query_exons_exonorder <- sorteach(query_exons_desc, exonorder)

# test similarity of query_exons and query_exons_exonorder
identical(query_exons, query_exons_exonorder)
#> [1] TRUE
