GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 679558
File open box doesn't show files in alphabetical order
Last modified: 2012-07-09 06:56:37 UTC
I had to de-install my old copy of gedit and re-install the latest gedit (3.2.6) after I upgraded my Mac to Lion. The file dialog boxes, both open and save (which I assume are the same box) show the file names in alphabetical order only when the file name lengths are the same. This may be a desirable feature for some, but it at least needs an option to order the file names alphabetically without regard to the file name length. I want something like: addresses.sql agents.sql appcite.sql application.sql appusers.sql assignees.sql billableevent.sql claims.sql classsubclass.sql collectedreferral.sql yet gedit 3.2.6 on my Mac Lion shows agents.sql claims.sql addresses.sql application.sql billableevent.sql classsubclass.sql
Is this a symptom of Bug #612019?
Could be related. I don't see the problem with Gimp 2.6.11 on my Lion box. But it may be manifest in more recent versions.
It is related, I've tracked this issue before to glib collation. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 612019 ***
