Created attachment 114964 [details] R comes before O in plasma 5.14 beta, Arch Linux
(In reply to Dr. Chapatin from comment #7) > Created attachment 114964 [details] > R comes before O in plasma 5.14 beta, Arch Linux That's likely because the fix never was merged to master, it only was in the 5.13 branch. Has been fixed an hour ago though.
Plasma 5.13.5 had the same bug.
(In reply to Dr. Chapatin from comment #9) > Plasma 5.13.5 had the same bug. Which one? On your screenshot from 5.13.3 the only problem that can be seen is that the search is case-sensitive.(O->P->e) And that's what I see here with 5.13.5 too. In 5.14 beta it probably is completely unsorted though, but current 5.14 branch should be in the same state as 5.13.5.
Plasma 5.13.5 had the same bug shown in the screenshot from comment 7.
(In reply to Dr. Chapatin from comment #11) > Plasma 5.13.5 had the same bug shown in the screenshot from comment 7. All right, that's the (GTK2) theme list though. I only looked at the cursors and icon-themes list as the title of this bug report says, and the commit from comment#4 was supposed to fix. Although, the themes lists seem to be correctly sorted here too (even case-insensitive), may be just "luck" though.
Created attachment 114966 [details] cursor drop down in plasma 5.13.5 Sorting must be case-insensitive.
(In reply to Dr. Chapatin from comment #13) > Created attachment 114966 [details] > cursor drop down in plasma 5.13.5 > > Sorting must be case-insensitive. I agree that it should be case-insensitive, but let's summarize the current state to avoid confusion. So, as I see it: The icon and cursor themes list are sorted now (not in 5.14 beta because the fix got "lost", that's fixed in 5.14 branch too meanwhile). But they are sorted case-sensitive (i.e. 'a' comes after 'Z', not before 'B'), it should rather be case-insensitive. The GTK2/3 themes lists are apparently still not sorted and appear in the order they are in the directory list.
Right. Thank you for your help.
This patch oughta fix that right up: https://phabricator.kde.org/D15598

Sort icon and cursor themes case-insensitively Summary: Stick a QSortFilterProxyModel between the model and the view, and tell it to sort case-insensitively. Thanks to https://stackoverflow.com/a/5732026/2934226 for providing the solution. FIXED-IN: 5.14.0 Test Plan: Could not test as I was unable to locate a working GTK 2 or 3 theme that started with a lowercase letter. But theoretically this code should do the trick, and it does not appear to cause any regressions at least.
