0.84: Drag-and-drop category goes at end, not alphabetical

Post by young »

When you drag-and-drop the category under a Parent category, it is always shown at the end of the list. However, if you close and open XnView, it is shown in alphabetical order again.

When you move a category under a Parent category using "Move to...", it is shown in alphabetical order. This is the correct behavior: always show the categories in alphabetical order, even when they are being moved around. A restart should not be required.

Thank you for your problem report, young. Which beta version did you use? Does this work in XnView 0.83?

0.83 behaves correctly, keeping the categories list sorted after drag-and-drop.

The problem started on 0.84. It is still there in the latest 0.84 beta 4.

Could you (@young) or someone else please check and confirm that this problem has been fixed in 0.84 final?

(Drag&drop in categories Filter doesn't work for me at all - I have to find out what I'm doing wrong, first).

The bug has been fixed in 0.84 final.

You can only move categories in the categories data pane (View - Data pane - Categories). It does not work in the categories filter.
