sort on custom
« on: April 05, 2007, 07:28:42 PM »
I'm not sure if this is a bug or a problem between the seat and the keyboard....

I'm doing a series of shots out my hotel room window... every 10 minutes, my camera fires off 5 bracketed shots. 

So i'd like to see my contact sheet ordered  ordered by exposure compensation, then by time of photo.

I can't get a custom sort to work on the variable {comp}.  I use 'edit custom' and it looks like I'm editing an existing sort (edit by type), but when I end that dialog, my changes don't seem to stick.

I'm using a beta that expires 4/5.   I think its the latest (exe file is dated 3/31)
Platform is Win XP.

Otherwise... everything looks great!!!!!  Awesome job Kirk!

Ron

I should add that the Image Information correctly shows the exposure compensation value... so the data is for sure in there... I just want to sort on it.

Download the final 4.5 release.  That bug has been fixed.  See the Announcements section for more information.
