Sorting on date - bug(?)

Within a folder files are sorted on date.

When double clicking an image, it will launch XnViewMP.

Then, when clicking on 'Next' it will display another file than expected, I would expect the one on screen.
Probably because the default sort order is based on filename(?)

It would be nice if XnViewMP would follow the same sorting as displayed on screen, in this case, on date, i.e. have an option to disable the internal sorting.

After a few tries, it strikes me that XnView jumps to 'some file' 2/two years ahead.
So, when viewing a file with modified date in 2018, when clicking on [Next] XnViewMP will show a file with modified date 2020 ....

Any suggestions/solutions?

(Maybe this is a feature request, I don't know)

you means sort in windows explorer? If so, it's not possible
