Mac Mojave

Hi, Jeremy,
You’re right that I meant folder. Sometimes you just can’t think of the right word —Senior moments!

When I open multiple files from a source folder in Preview, they don’t open in the same order as they’re in the folder. I’m not sure they ever did.

A short while ago I created my Bulletin Board Exhibeo folder by dragging in the files — all stayed in order; the related HTML files were also in order!

Thanks for all your patience with me.

Hi Joanne,

I think you mean “folder” rather than “file” when you say “click on the name of the file containing the alphabetized images”.

Dragging doesn’t use a file dialog, so it goes through different code (in the system and in Exhibeo). My guess is that this is a system (Mojave) bug rather than an Exhibeo bug. One way to test this would be to try opening multiple files in Apple’s Preview.app and see if that has the same problem.

It’s good to know that dragging is an effective workaround. You can also reorder images (in Exhibeo) after they’ve been imported, but that’s obviously less convenient than having them in the correct order to begin with.
