0.98.1: The wrong Similarity value

[Mapaler]

XnView: MP 0.98.1 - 64-bit
OS: Windows 10 - 64-bit

Effect: Similarity value is 0

To reproduce:

• Tools - Search similar files - Similar files content
• Normally, the similarity is 100

• When you use date sorting, it becomes 0

Expected behaviour: Similarity value is 100.

It is highly recommended

• Allows multiple folders to be selected at the same time.

  Currently, only one can be selected. It would be more cumbersome if I just wanted to compare a part of folders.
  Many add folders button have this problem. Such as in Batch Convert, Join Images.
• Allows me to drag files/folders into the list.

  Can't drag at the moment, it's cumbersome to specify a file.

You can use any similar picture. If you really need it, use this.
download/file.php?id=7069

I found a law, Sort by date, is the last of each row, with a similarity of 0.

And then sort by Size, are the same files (but not same order) with a similarity of 0.

Back to the default sort, you can see that it's actually the first by default.

Thanks to your detailed description I can reproduce the problem.
The reference item must not changed after sorting
