Sort order by "filename" doesn't handle alphanumeric combinations


Recommended Posts

Posted

If I let my images sort by filename, the result in Daminion is like following:

 

 

# 1. image_10.jpg

# 2. image_110.jpg

# 3. image_11.jpg

 

I would have expecet to have an ascending order of 10,11,110.

This is the binary numbering. It is best to number its files with a "0" in front of each unit: 01,02, 03 ... 09, 10, 11, 12.

 

If more than one hundred file, then: 001 002 003 ... etc..

More than a thousand 3x = "0".

Thanks for your hint with the leading zeros. But, as for me, I guess it's easier to sort by date instead of renaming thousands of files subsequently.

Anyway it's not a critical problem. I was just wondering because other viewers are respecting alphanumeric file names.

Personally, I call my photos my name _date shooting _ file number assigned by the camera.

Eg emef_20130530_dsc9123.nef or jpg (tif, psd ...).. Each file is in a directory named by the date.

...on my PC the items were sorted correctly:

 

Sorry Murat,

my initial sample is wrong. I wrote the text out of my memory and just mistook the filenames.

 

 

As you can see on the Daminion screenshot, the problem is that image_12 comes right after image_110 and not after image_11.

The acdsee screenshot shows the correct order.
