Topic: In photos and video panel can I arrange order to date taken?

In the photos and video panel, I see my images from which I will construct a show. These appear in alphabetic order.

The most useful ordering would be date taken so that I can more easily process my show in chronological order.

I cannot find anything that allows me to re-arrange my fold images in this screen. Am I missing something?

Thanks.

Re: In photos and video panel can I arrange order to date taken?

In the current version, only alphabetic order is supported. You could first arrange the files by date in the Windows folder, and then rename them all in batch - it's a matter of seconds.
To rename the files in batch in Windows,
1) select the first file with a single click, press and hold Shift, then select the last file;
2) press F2 (rename)
3) enter any file name, e.g. summer
4) press Enter.
That's it - the files will be renamed to summer (1), summer (2) etc.
After that, you can arrange them anew, by alphabetic order this time.
