ExplorerListGadget - additional sorting selections

Post by TerryHough »

The ExplorerListGadget now allows
#PB_Explorer_AutoSort that sorts the list on file name

I would like for it to automatically sort on other fields, so I suggest that
the following selections be included:
#PB_Explorer_AutoSort_Name to sort the list by file name
#PB_Explorer_AutoSort_Size to sort the list by file size
#PB_Explorer_AutoSort_Type to sort the list by file type
#PB_Explorer_AutoSort_DateModified to sort the list on date modified

along with
#PB_Explorer_AutoSort_Ascending and
#PB_Explorer_AutoSort_Descending
to control the method of sorting.

This would allow the list to be completely formatted by programmers wish instead of having to click on column headers manually.

Since I'm still wishing for this, I would also like to be able to optional display the file size in bytes rather than Kb.

I think this would be a very popular enhancement Terry.

If it sounds simple, you have not grasped the complexity.
