Chronological Order Incorrect

Appears the session list doesnt organise correctly when dealing with numbers that go over 10:

Hi,
This is sorted alphabetically, exactly like in Windows Explorer, there is nothing I can do for the sort by default. What you can do is to rename it 01, 02 or change the Sort order in the session configuration.

Sorry about that.

Hi David,

Sorry for harassing you, getting stuck in with enterprise edition.

You mention "change the Sort order in the session configuration." Where is this?

Hi,
No problem, you can specify a value in the advanced tab page setting of the session (Edit Session menu). This is 0 by default, so if you want one of your session to be first, you can set it to -1 or any value under 0, same thing if you want it last, set it to any value greater than 0.

David - dunno if you've ever played with CuteFTP (you can download a trial), but it has an option to do "normal" sorting, or "smart" sorting, where it sorts it as CL1, CL2, CL3, CL4, CL5,CL6,CL7,CL8,CL9,CL10, etc.

So there has to be a way to do it. Just dunno what kind of overhead would be involved.

Never tried, but the problem is deeper for now, we rely on the Microsoft sort implementation build in the tree view. I will see what I can do when we change the tree view (this is something we want to do to support more advanced feature, like a TreeListView with columns).

Hi,
You can use that KB http://support.microsoft.com/kb/319827 to change order in Windows. If this can help...
