Navigation is wonky after the new update [Solved]

Post by PwnyHipster »

Ever since the new update when I navigate to the next photo it goes by the first number instead of numerical order.
For example instead of going 1,2,3,4, etc. It goes 1,10,100,2,20,etc.

How do I fix this?

Edit: I figured it out. I had to click the browse button first and change the sort to name numeric order

Your sort order can be reset in the file browser View > Sort by section... :D

Note that three separate options need to be set in sections separated by fine lines.

I have a problem like this.
When I open a file and I use the arrow keys of the keyboard to open the next or previous files with version 1.10 it only opens files stating with lowercase letters if the first open file star with it or with capital letters if the opposite.
Before 1.10 it opened any file mixed. Now it make two groups.
I have gone back to 1.9.10 and it works perfect.
