GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 326621
Sort by command line order
Last modified: 2007-01-11 18:19:40 UTC
I would really like for gthumb to display images in the order I supply from the command line. Currently, gthumb always sorts the images before displaying. An option to turn this sorting off would enable users (like me) to sort the images with an external script and then pass the ordered list of filenames to gthumb for slideshow display.
Created attachment 80031 [details] [review] Partial patch to fix command-line-ordering Paolo, This is a partial patch that makes the "slide" mode follow the command-line ordering of files. It sets the manual sorting mode when launched with a command line catalog. Also, it consolidates the no-sorting comparison routines into the gth-sort-utils.c file. For some reason, it doesn't work properly for the "list" mode. I don't fully understand the tree sorting in the list mode - I think something is wrong with the unsorted/manual tree code. Could you take a look? - Mike
Never mind. I'm figuring it out. - Mike
Fixed in the development version (svn rev 1261). The fix will be available in the next major release (2.9.2?). Thank you for your bug report.
Thank you for fixing it (and with a less than one year respnse time ;)!
