Sort the files in the Document Selector

Post by mjkahn »

The files in my Document Selector aren't displaying in sorted order -- they're not sorted by filename or by full pathname. Is there any way to get them to sort by filename?

I'm using TextPad 5.3.1.

This was discussed just days ago. Have you read this thread? http://forums.textpad.com/viewtopic.php?t=10616

Perfect - thanks!

I searched for "document selector" and "sort" (I *always* search before I post!), but it didn't yield any interesting results.

Thank you for the link to that thread! The problem was that I was creating new documents (which got added under "D" for "Document"), then doing a Save As, which gave them the new name, but didn't change their location in the Document Selector. That's why the list appeared to be unsorted. And closing/reopening the Document Selector causes the list to be re-sorted.

Thanks!
