Alphabetize File Types in Options

Post by TheEvilHammer »

If you go to Options and then look at either the "Read" or "Write" sections, you'll notice that the filetype subsections are in a seemingly random order. This isn't much of a problem now, but if more filetype subsections are added in the future, finding the one you want becomes problematic. I think these filetype subsections should be alphabetized.

What do other people think?

:) Hello !

- Yes, I agree. I can say that it's very difficult to find out a "unknown" extension in the list, in order to see if it's supported. I miss that for years…
- Support !

:mrgreen: Kind regards,
