Hi everyone I think I found a "bug".
When using the xp sorting mode irfanview (with original settings apart from the sort as xp option) shows pictures in the "wrong" order.
To show what I mean I submitting 4 pictures:
If possible, could admins try to fix it in future irfanview versions, and/or could someone help me modifying xp so that it shows previews/files in the same order as irfanview (the problem is that they show them in different ways )
Step by step guide:
Download and unrar the files into a folder on xp.
Rightklick in the xp folder: "arrange files by" and "name"
Open one picture, make sure you use "option/sort directory files/by name XP style"
Go from the first to the last picture by pressing the arrowkeys(or any other way, im just using the arrowkeys to make sure we do it the same way), you will notice that irfanview wills how you the pictures in this order:
1:__The_King___by_Krestersy
2:_Naruto___Looking_for_Angels__by_orin
3:where is your heart gone to
4:2be4fb4779174ed12b38fd717908df7e_abigel
BUT xp will show them in this order:
1:__The_King___by_Krestersy
2:_Naruto___Looking_for_Angels__by_orin
3:2be4fb4779174ed12b38fd717908df7e_abigel
4:where is your heart gone to
So basicly its swapping 3 and 4.
Extra info: version: 4.25 (the latest)
Operating system: XP x86 SP3 (english)
Hardware: AMD athlon 64 x2 3800+, geforce 8400
Changing their names to 1,2,3,4 stopped this from happening.
I think (but im not sure) that it happens the most when special characters such as ' _ and - are used.
Btw love irfanview
