SKP and LO seem to have bug where the file type sorting preferences when you Open are not being respected. I noticed it this week, not sure how to fix it:
SKP: (it should sort by file type, and then alphabetically)
LO:
Finder:
Is that to do with SU/LO or Mac? Your screenshots only seem to show folders, not files.
That’s standard macOS behavior: when you choose to sort by kind, folders sort before files regardless of file extension. Finder does the same.
No, it is not correct, regardless if I am just showing files or folders. I should have specified that is doesn’t match my Finder for the same setting.
Finder sorts by Kind, and within Kind it is alphabetical:
SU does not:
Agreed - but something went sideways - SU doesn’t match my Finder now, regardless of how I toggle the sort / display options within the ‘Open’ dialog in SU. It works properly in Finder…
When I use the ‘List’ view it sorts as expected:
Hitting option while changing the sort type seems to re-set this…
Interesting! I had never noticed that function. It is mentioned in the tooltip if you hover the cursor over the group icon, both in SketchUp and in Finder. So, it is a macOS behavior.
Yup, must have hit it by accident sometime in the past week…
