How to Make Manual Sorting Permanent for Folders

[3ccentricity]

Hi,

I have a collection of manga, so folders with images in them. I have each folder showing a large thumbnail making it look like a library of manga. The problem is whenever i use the manual sorting feature to sort/order the folders how I want them it will revert everything back to its original state once i close that instance of XYPlorer and open it again.

I've tried:
- saving the folder view settings
- going to edit in folder view settings and ticking sort order under applied settings
- save setting

Any assistance with this problem would be great.
Kind Regards,
Lachlan.

Currently a Custom Sort Order is only remembered per tab, not per folder. One day it might be added to Folder View Settings.

PS: But take a look at the scripting command sortbylist. It should be possible by scripting to export the current sort order to a file (using get("ItemsNames"); to retrieve a list of item names in the current sort order), and then load it using sortbylist. That way you could even have different alternative sort orders for a folder just one click away.

Thanks for the alternative. It didn't even cross my mind to do it that way. Cheers.
