changing the default sorting of an "open file" window
When I go to open a file, or save one using the "save as" option, the
files listed in the subsequent dialog box appear to be in a random order. I remember that there a trick to change it so they would be sorted the way I choose by default, but I can't remember how to do that. I'd like them to be sorted by name by default, simliar to how they are on my old powermac. Right now, I'm almost always right clicking and choosing "arrange icons-by name" just so I can find the file I want, or see what version of a file I'm up to if I'm saving multiple versions with different names. How do I do that again? |
