HI, Jeremy,
To import the files, I click on “Import Images” and click on the name of the file containing the alphabetized images and then click on “OPEN”, so I can import all the images in the file at once. When I click on “OPEN", all the images are imported into the Exhibeo file in random order.
Just now, I started a new Exhibeo file and dragged over groups of files from my source file; but I dragged the groups in order. The files in the Exhibeo files were then in the order I wanted. Then I exported to HTML and they were is the correct order there.
I also started another new Exhibeo file (#3) and dragged over groups of files, where the groups were not sequential to other groups. Then ran the export to HTML and the images were in correct order!!! I did this with another new Exibeo file (#5) and dragged groups of files from my source, in no particular order and even inserted 1 group among files I had earlier dragged; this time I had about 120 images — and the HTML image file had them all in the correct order!!!
This is WEIRD!!!; If I drag from my source file to an Exhibeo file, the HTMLs are in the correct order but if I open a file of images into an Exhibeo file, the order is random! In High Sierra, if I opened a file of images into an Exhibeo, they were sorted properly!
I guess dragging groups from my source file into my Exhibeo file would be easier than dragging individual files, especially when I might have 19 images to drag!
Sorry that it’s been like pulling teeth to get info from me!

Hi Joanne,
What I’m saying is, since using Mojave, the import function into Exhibeo (which has 0 or 1 images in it) reorders my properly sorted alphanumeric file into a randomly sorted file; the export function maintains this same random sort with the HTML files. Any help you can give me will be wonderful!!!
So the problem is that the images aren’t being imported into Exhibeo in alphanumeric order?
Are you importing the images by clicking on “Import Images” in the toolbar and then choosing the images from the file dialog (sorted by Name)?
If so, then one possibility is that this is a bug in Mojave - you could test this by importing images into another application and seeing if the same problem happens. E.g. Open Preview.app, select Open from the File menu, and choose multiple images that are listed in alphanumeric order. Do they appear in alphanumeric order in Preview?
The next thing to try would be to see what happens if you drag the images into Exhibeo:
- Open a folder containing the images (in Finder)
- Make sure the images are listed alphabetically
- Drag them onto the Exhibeo window
If you do this, are they imported in alphanumeric order?
