Sort problem after file rename
« on: October 06, 2014, 20:22:03 »
Just installed latest version 4.6 build 1777 64-bit edition.

The following three screen shots illustrate the issue.
Image #1 - files in name order.
Image #2 - renaming one of the files.
Image #3 - sort order is not by name any more. Appears to be by Attrib.

This may have existed with the prior version(s) but I can't say for certain.

I'm not able to recreate that.  I get it to resort after rename if that option is on.. But it always sort by the selected sort column. I do not get it to sort by someother column.  But can be that some setting that collides with some other settings that make it act strange (So many settings), But Im not able to recreate it.


Btw.. Interesting column setup..

I attached exports of my Core and Explorer Panel settings. Perhaps these will help in recreating the problem. Note that "Automatically re-sort files and folders after manual rename" is NOT checked.

As an after thought, here is my ColumnSets.xml file. This may have a bearing on it as well.

I have not changed any settings. Now, several days and reboots later, the sorting after rename works correctly. What's different? Nothing that I can identify.

Perhaps there is a bug in the code that causes the sort conditions to be inadvertently altered (to sort-after-rename and sort-column-1).

Yes strange. I have not had the time to test with your config fileds yet.

I will keep an Eye on it and see if I can see why that can happen
