Clicking on "Modified" sorts the display in *reverse* order

Help & Support
1

Hi,
I am using DO V10 and I am missing something that was possible with DirOpus 6 with a registry modification : I would like that, when clicking on "Modified" in a display window, the files & folders get sorted in reverse order (most recent at the top), without having to click on shift at the same time. I don't want all folders to be sorted in Modified date reverse order, I just want the click on modified to apply a reverse order. Is it possible ?

Thanks.

You can right-click on "Modified" and then select (toggle) Sort By > Reverse Order from menu.

Thanks, but I am not sure it does 100% of what I want. This works for the current folder. I want that, for all folders, when I just click once on the LMB of "Modified", the folder is sorted in reverse order.

Prefs, Display, Fields is what you want.

Thanks. It's very close to what I want, except that the small triangle next to "Modified" is not reversed (flat base up), but "regular". With V6 there was a hack to display it upside down. Here with V10 I don't know.

V10 always has the arrows like V6 when it was configured to have them "upside down" so it should already be how you want it.

(Actually, on further inspection, the triangle is the wrong way around for the time/date columns by default, and correct once you reverse their default orders. The arrow should point towards the smallest elements, and does when the default sort-order is reversed.)

We've got some improvements to how this works lined up for the next version.

Thanks for the replies. I have now activated the Prefs/Display/Field/Date Modified & Reverse order. I still think the triangle is not as it should be, compared for instance to Windows standard. When the most recent elements are on top of the list, the triangle should point to the bottom.
