Browser - filelist - sort - improve method naming

Post by user0 »

XnViewMP 1.11.1
Windows11 (25H2), display resolution 3840x2160, dpi scale 150%


Browser - filelist - sort method/order
numeric and normal sort method names are not descriptive enough

Suggestion
  • reorder options
    - natural
    - alphabetic
    - system

test
browser_filelist_sort_method.png

If a sort method is named “system” then it is guaranteed that there will be people who believe it will use the sort from Windows Explorer (or Mac Finder); that if they change the sort in Explorer, XnViewMP will automatically match it. Confusion and support posts will ensue.
