Version: 1.1 (using 4.1.3 (KDE 4.1.3) "release 4.10.4", openSUSE 11.1) Compiler: gcc OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.27.25-0.1-pae File names are sorted wrong, i.e. 200803-x 20080103-y 20080425-z "200803-x" should be ordered between "20080103-y" and "20080425-z". Seems that dolphin take the number value at the beginning of filenames as the sort crtieria?!
Dolphin does a "natural sorting" like other file managers, which means that strings are sorted like this: image 1.jpg image 2.jpg image 10.jpg image 11.jpg instead of image 1.jpg image 10.jpg image 11.jpg image 2.jpg

In my opinion it is very dangerous to change tacitely well known concepts as alphanumeric sorting order. To be "natural" is not a good idea in IT. Because of this very terrible trap I destroyed by a hair a part of my photo collection, I could not believe my eyes... Which other file managers do so??? Kind regards Jörgf Hutschenreiter
