      Hello, @cletos and All,

      When you start N++ :

      • By default, the files are sorted by view ( 2nd view first ) and by their ID number ( from 0, I presume )

      • After a first click on the Name header, all files are sorted alphabetically, in ascending order

      • After a second click on the Name header, all files are sorted alphabetically, in descending order

      • After a third click on the Name header, all files are sorted, again, according to the default !

      • And so on …


      May be, you could be interested in that plugin :

      https://github.com/young-developer/nppNavigateTo

      Just use the Ctrl + , default shortcut and type the first letters of the file that you want to be in the foreground

      With that plugin, no need to have the Doc Switcher panel opened all the time !

      Best Regards,

      guy038

        Hello guy038,

        Many thanks!

        By default, the files are sorted by view ( 2nd view first ) and by their ID number ( from 0, I presume )

        After a first click on the Name header, all files are sorted alphabetically, in ascending order

        After a second click on the Name header, all files are sorted alphabetically, in descending order

        After a third click on the Name header, all files are sorted, again, according to the default !

        And so on …

        So, I guess, the files cannot be moved manually, e.g. by dragging a single file to another position.

        Great! Thank you very much for the plugin, looks very good. I just will installed it.
