&xwp;'s extended sort functions are configured on the
"Sort" settings pages.
The "Sort" page appears in two different locations:
- The "Sort" page in the
"Workplace Shell" object
allows you to specify global sort settings, which apply to all folders,
unless you specify something different for a certain folder.
For example, you can enable "Always maintain sort order" on for all folders.
- &xwp; also replaces the default OS/2 "Sort" page in every
folder Settings notebook. On this page you may override the default
settings which you have specified in the "Workplace Shell" object.
The list box on the "Sort" settings pages lets you select the
default sort criterion for
a certain folder (or, in the "Workplace Shell" notebook, for all folders).
If "Folders first" is enabled, all folders are sorted
to the top of the folder. See
"Sort Criteria" for a detailed
description.
If "Always maintain sort order" is enabled, the folder
will always be sorted according to the
default sort criterion.
