Resolume Forum

Have a feeling this is something obvious I've missed or a previous request I've not noticed, but:

For me, files aren’t ordered properly. It goes 1,10,16,2,20,21,3,4 etc instead of the expected.

1, 10, 16, 2, 20, 21, 3, 4 is an order; it's an alphabetic/numeric order like a, ab, ac, ac1, b2, b2a, bc, c, ...

To solve this problem is simple, you must re-name the files like:
001
002
003
010
016
020
021
etc.

The reading order of the symbols, numbers and letters in the OS file's names, generally is:
$, %, &, +, =, £, -, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, a, b, c, ...

Sure, but the vast majority of programs and operating systems take this into account these days and sort files in the order humans would expect.

I never noticed this before, but Finder handles the sorting the 'human way' as well. You see something new every day I guess.

I'll make a feature request for this.
