I held this hand an the bidding started:

1♦-1♠!-(2♣)

3NT-

   1♠: 4+♥ (and longer ♥'s then ♠'s)

 

...Next time with a 6/7 I'll bidd my highest first so that I can easily bid the 2nd suit next. I would have felt more comfortable with:

1♦-1♥!-(2♣)

3NT-

   1♥: 4+♠

 

Now the bidding continued:

1♦-1♠!-(2♣)

3NT--4♥

5♦!!-5♠

5NT-All pass

   1♠: 4+♥

   5♦: Without the 2♣ overcall 3NT would promise 18-19HCP and 4 card ♥. Partner thought I (or he) was wrong and therefore he corrected to 5♦.

Maybe it is better if I bid 4/5/6 ♣ iso 4♥.
