I have a series of images I have named Fig. 1 to fig 11. Fig 10 and Fig 11 are placed after Fig 1 in the Sort my Name configuration. So we have: Fig 1, fig 10, fig 11, fig 2, fig 3, etc.

Can’t the Browser count to 10? Properly?

Only if you name your files correctly. You’d need to start with file01, file 02, etc.

If you have over 99 then you’d start with file001, file002.

Thanks! Seems to be a lot of extra numerals.

If you know your files count will be much larger than 100, do you start with 001, or maybe even 0001 ?

If you’re going that high, then yes. You need the zeros.

Lawrence,

File systems sort alphabetically, not numerically – that’s why you need the leading zeros

Actually, the sort is canonical. Punctuation before numbers before alphabet. !image999.jpg
