Can confirm. But note that Dolphin and Plasma use different sorting systems. Let's use this bug report for Dolphin. Can you please submit a new one for Plasma? And I assume by "Plasma" you mean "Icons on the desktop or a Folder View widget? Or something else? @Nate Graham Thank you for your response and for confirming. No problem I can make that submit for Plasma as well but before I do I just want to get on the same page because I was not aware of the fact that two different sorting systems are applied, although makes sense because Dolphin does have a sort option in settings. Anyways when I refer to Plasma, the items you mention are included but also what about things like the "open" and "save as" windows that Plasma uses for programs? Although they have a similar look to Dolphin, I was assuming these were part of Plasma itself, do you know where those are coming from? I will wait for an answer from you or other members before I make that submit so I can include that information. A quick side note, I imagine you are quite busy but maybe you would be able to answer this question about sorting I posted here https://discuss.kde.org/t/how-does-plasma-achieve-natural-sorting-of-files/1807 Only reason I am asking you is that you mentioned / knew about the fact that two sorting systems were being used, figured maybe you might know the answer. Thanks again for taking the time to confirm my findings. Open and Save As dialogs are provided by still another thing: KIO. All of them use different code, so they would all need to be separately changed. Make sure to relate the bug reports you submit using the "see also" field. I don't know how to fix it, sorry. A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/system/dolphin/-/merge_requests/858 Git commit e4cc6e69430049366434e3383b1d2ef283ed22cc by Méven Car, on behalf of Eren Karakas. Committed on 19/11/2024 at 09:08. Pushed by meven into branch 'master'. natural sort: exclude extension when comparing filenames Currently natural sort compares the entire filenames (basename.extension) when sorting. This causes eg. "a 2.txt" to appear before "a.txt" when sorted by ascending. This is unintuitive since people prioritize basenames more than file extensions. Instead, change natural sort to compare by basename only and fallback to comparing extensions if basenames were equal. This change causes "a.txt" to appear before "a 2.txt" and matches how other platforms such as GNOME and Windows behave.
