Normal Windows Explorer displays folders first then files, but when you sort by something other than Name it lists files first. I can do this globally in DOpus with Folder Format..., but how do I do it only when sorting other than Name?
You could have a button/hotkey/etc. which changes both the sort column and dir/file ordering at once.
There isn't a way to make it happen automatically when e.g. clicking the column headers.
(Looking at File Explorer, it seems to use different rules for different columns.)
That's unfortunate. How would I create such a hotkey? And is there a way to create a custom button with a custom hotkey or is it only through the keyboard?
Hotkeys can be assigned to toolbar/menu buttons, or can be standalone.
Here's an example command which will toggle between two states:
- Sort by name, folders first.
- Sort by modified date, files first.
@if:Set SORTBY=name
Set SORTORDER=Files SORTBY=modified SORTREVERSE=off
@if:else
Set SORTORDER=Folders SORTBY=name SORTREVERSE=off
