Feature proposal: resort "Display Age" dropdown

Postby michl080 » Sat Oct 01, 2011 3:37 pm

Hi,

The sorting sequence for the "Display age" dropdown menu in a group window could be improved (in my opinion) :-)

First entry is "display age" followed by many "year month" entries. After that, "show all files" and "show special..." appear. This used to be OK, when only a short month list was there ( I believe that was at V5). Now, the last both entries require scrolling before they can be choosen. I propose to change the sequence to "display age", "show all files", "show special..." and then all the "year month" entires.

I assume that not many people want to see 4 year old posting, but a lot more like to see all messages.


All the best, Michael

Yeah, I'll give it some thought. It is sort of annoying to scroll through the list.
