How to Sort File Listings

Previous  Top  Next

You can sort items in file listings by using three different methods:

1.	Click the column header to sort the listing by clicked column. The arrow next to the column name indicates the current sorting order. Click the column header a second time to reverse the sorting order.

2.	Right click on top of the file listing to open the pop-up menu. Then select the sorting order from the Sort submenu.

3.	There is a shortcut to sort filenames by extension: Press the Shift key and click the Filename column header. This is the same as selecting the Sort by extension command from the pop-up menu (method 2). You can repeat the Shift-Click method to reverse the sorting by extension.

Notice that file listings always list folders before files.

Saving sort order on exit   

By default, the sorting order is saved on exiting the program and restored automatically on the next program start up. You can change this via the menu Settings > General Settings > Other tab > Remember file list sort order check box. Deselecting the check box resets the sorting order to Sort-by-filename on program start up.
