Hello

It is just a wish.

In "Thumbnails" tab, is that possible to add a menu that can sort the view by "File name" (the default) and by "Creation date of file" ?

Thank's if that's possible in a next version !
;)

Olivier.

That's all there, see menu View-> Item Sort.
What exactly do you mean by thumbnail tab?

If by file creation date you mean the actual creation date of the file (ctime), it is actually not in the database. For us, the metadata creation date is important; if this does not exist, we would use the file creation date (ctime). The metadata creation date is often also the file creation date.
