In 1.11.4, Batch Rename dialog no longer honors Browser sort order

Post by jkm »

In 1.11.2, the Batch Rename honored the sorting order in the Browser.

In 1.11.4, it does NOT honor the sorting order in the Browser, and instead seems to always impose Alphabetic Descending. :bug:

If I use custom sort to produce this order:
02.png
03.png
01.png
04.png

Then Batch Rename in 1.11.2 shows:
02.png => 01.png
03.png => 02.png
01.png => 03.png
04.png => 04.png

But 1.11.4 shows THIS: (100% of the time)

04.png => 01.png
03.png => 02.png
02.png => 03.png
01.png => 04.png

It imposes Alphabetic Descending sort, regardless of the sort order in the browser.

Changing to any non-custom sort in the Browser doesn't matter. Batch Rename always imposes Alphabetic Descending.

You can click the Name header to change between Alphabetic Descending and Ascending, but that is useless if you need some other sort order.

Expected Behavior: Batch Rename dialog should honor the sort order of the Browser, like it did in 1.11.2.
