Title: Number sorting Order
Post by: dfmsrsa on 2014-04-30 23:43:09

Hi there

Really like version 9, but had to revert back to version 7.

The way numbers are sorted in version 9 is difficult to work with if you have file names starting with numbers which is a lot.

Version 7 sort as:
1
111
2
22
246
3
33

Version 9 sort as:
1
2
3
22
33
111
246

This is a major problem. I have disabled Intuitive or Numerical Sorting in Windows which works 100% in file explorer and other applications except ThumbsPlus 9.

Any suggestions as I would really like to use Version 9 rather that Version 7.

Thanks

This seems to be a bug in TP9 that I haven't noticed before; I only ever sort on numeric names or user fields.

It seems that sorting on 'Name' or 'Numeric name' in TP9 produces exactly the same results; it was correct in TP7.

Thanks Pete

Very frustrating as I work with a lot of images with numbers and then have to select the best shots and delete duplicates. As they are not sorted together it makes it very difficult. I have submitted many support tickets over the past couple of months but still unanswered.
