Jelgan Posted June 3, 2020 Report Share Posted June 3, 2020 Hi, As I've started digging into Daminion a little deeper I've found a few things I wish I could do, but can't seem to find a way to do them. I've searched the forums but the info seems to be for previous versions, if anyone could offer any suggestions I'd appreciate it! Sorting: 2 questions regarding sorting. First is there a way to set the default sorting to be something other than none? I found an old post with a link saying there was a way to do it, but the link seemed dead. Second, is there a way to sort by multiple criteria? ie Color label first and then rating? Groups: I sometimes have multiple variations of the same photo that I put into a single group while searching/browsing. I assign any applicable tags to all files within the group so they are all available when I filter by tags, but I wish that the number showing how many items each tag applies to only referred to the group, not each individual file. Is there a setting (or more likely, a workaround) that will continue to allow all files in a group to appear for a given search criteria, but only register as one entry per group? Tags: Is there anyway to assign tags into both a hierarchy and a (separate) group? Currently I have locations sorted geographically (which I like) but sometimes I'd also like to have a group of "favorite locations" using the existing tags if possible. I guess I'm kind of trying to tag the tags. Anyway to do this? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please try to check this setting in the Settings.XML (CTRL-F12->1.0-Settings.xml): <setting name="RestoreSorting" serializeAs="String"> <value>True</value> </setting> You can't sort by multiple criteria. Regarding the Tags: Why not using other tags, e.g. A Collection Tag "FavouritePlace01" and as subtags the Places you would like to assign to this main tag. regards, Uwe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
