PB IDE 5.30 B7 project files auto-sort

Post by uwekel »

Hi,

I just noticed that the project files are now automatically sorted by filename in the project tab. That is great :!:

Best regards

Aaaahg. And I just came here to see why my files are no longer sorted in the order I opened them, as they previously were. I DON'T want my files sorted alphabetically...now I have to manually reorganize them every time I open PB...

I must agree with Tenaja. This alphabet sorting is quite annoying.
It used to be possible to change the taborder afterwards in the XML .pbp projectfile. But whatever you do there gets overruled when you open the project. I now ressorted to adding numeral prefixes before the names (like 01, 02, 03 etc.). But I don't like that solution.

Best thing to do is to make this optional: Alphabetic or Last know positions.

+1

If the project is closed, the order of the tabs also saved in the project file and restored if you open the project.

Nope, that doesn't work (on 5.31 x86). It always ressorts back to alphabetic order.
