It seems I am not allowed to script such a thing so I'm posting this request here. Main feature would be the source plain .txt file be read globally in ways non-consecutive items being allowed. For instance:
c:\folder 1\item 5.txt
d:\folder 4\item 10.txt
d:\folder 4\item 2.txt
c:\folder 1\item 1.txt
will be ordered as
d:\folder 4\item 10.txt
d:\folder 4\item 2.txt
and
c:\folder 1\item 5.txt
c:\folder 1\item 1.txt
when respective folders 1 and 4 are visited.
This would certainly allow a transparent user control over everything custom ordained as well as, perhaps, integrating with Paper Folders with zero effort when it makes sense.
File Based Custom Sort Order
Re: File Based Custom Sort Order
Why are you not allowed to script that?
Just do it! Ofc the automation would require something external but that's not hard to do as well...

I can't figure out any XYplorer scripting routine by which I could do this, let alone outsource this.highend wrote:Why are you not allowed to script that?

Re: File Based Custom Sort Order
There is sortbylist. The rest is a simple parse on the .txt file for the necessary folder...
