Description Mihai Sorin Dobrescu 2019-03-23 09:00:12 UTC
SUMMARY

I have thousands of wallpapers set to be displayed in many folders.
This the preferred way in 99.99% of setups I have (well, sometimes I activate some animations for a short period of time).
I need to have a controlled way of displaying them.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

I set a list of folders to take the wallpapers from.


OBSERVED RESULT

The wallpapers are set as defined, but randomly.

EXPECTED RESULT

I would like to have options for wallpapers order:
- random (as it is now)
- in the file system order

I really don't need other modes, but probably could be added, taking into account the alpha-numeric orders that might be done (like case sensitive or not, numbers recognition etc.)
