in answer to my previous post re dodgy Bookmarks sorting. I tried
some alternatives in FinMac2k6d and added about 20 numbers to a new
default file. It appears that by commencing the Bookmark name with
the string '01_', '02_', '03_' etc it sorts correctly from top to
bottom in the list. Insertions such as '011_', '012_' position
themselves correctly in the top/down list also. So far so good in
Fin2k6d.
I opened this same file in FinMac2k9 and the Bookmark list looked OK
in proper top/down order. I then added some more insertions with the
preceding digits strings. Bummer. They went to the top of the list.
However, after some time I quit and relaunched the app and the
Bookmarks list sorted correctly.
Returned to the Fin2k6d file and added extra insertions as per the
Fin2k9 file and they sorted themselves immediately.
pretty erratic behaviour from a basic navigation tool from version to
version and neither of them handle alphabetical sorting predictably.
(BTW I'm on Mac PPCG4 1.25GHz DP, 2GB RAM, OSX 10.4.11)
