Hi,

If I have a bunch of folders, they can be sorted alphabetically, by creation or by modification date. However, I want to sort them to my own ideas. I don;t want to rename or edit files to change the creation / mod dates.
How can I do this?

Thanks, Edwin

You should change sorting order parameter, of parent node to priority. After that you will have priority entry field on the full view of object

Sorting on priority seemed to be the most workable

Another trick in the case you have one sorting idea for certain classes which can be tied to an attribute: use <attribute> in the object name for class instances, make your override template which hides the name field of the resulting objects, but use the sort on name to get the sorting according to the attribute.

You may also combine attributes in the object name for the class

Not ideal, but ...
