Remember directory sort column

Post by anatolewilson »

Hi
I'm using xplorer2 in dual pane mode.
In each of the pane I have a number of (named) tabs.
One of the tab is pointing to my "Donwloads" folder.
I'd like to sort this tab by the "Modified" column. The other tabs should be sorted by the "Name" column.
I can achieve this, by clicking on the corresponding column header.
Unfortunately, after restarting xplorer2 all tabs in the pane are sorted by the same column (by the one that I've last selected).
Would be great if you could add a feature that xplorer2 remembers the sort order per tab (and not per pane).
Thanks.

there are a few ways to do this, either make DOWNLOADS a special folder sorted by date modified only using custom folder settings (see www.zabkat.com/x2h_2.htm#br_def), or use TOOLS > ADVANCED OPTIONS menu and find and enable the option that says "each folder tab can have different view settings"
