Sorting files by sound
« on: June 19, 2009, 05:36:46 AM »
Is there any way to have the files with sound attached to come first rather than last when I sort by {sound}? It's not a huge issue but it would save some scrolling with big folders.

Thanks,

Marketa

Marketa,

Is there any way to have the files with sound attached to come first rather than last when I sort by {sound}? It's not a huge issue but it would save some scrolling with big folders.

Try moving {sound} from the Primary sort field (leaving it blank) to the Secondary sort field and then set the 'reverse secondary' checkbox.

HTH,

I tried it your suggestion but it does not work - does not sort the files with sound at all. Maybe something has to be in the primary box, but I can't figure out what.

Thanks,

Marketa

Have you already tried entering a literal text in the primary sort field (e.g, just the letter X). Works for me  :)

Putting a letter in the primary box did it. Thank you very much.
