Version 8.2 > Organization of images and videos?
10/22/2016 3:35:10 PM
In 8.2 it seems that images and videos are organized by type when the icon view is selected.
There may be some good reason for this, but I can't think of it. I look for media by name
and to have to scroll through an entire directory to find what I'm looking for is crazy (to me).
Usually I could care less whether I use a jpg, png, tiff, etc. and to look through multiple sections
just to find a named file isn't handy. It would be OK if you could select how the files are displayed,
but that doesn't seem to be the case - at least I haven't discovered it. A simple solution would be
to organize the icons according to the existing details view.

Dick,
If you already know the name of the image or video file, why don't you just use the Search By Text option and go right to it rather than scrolling through the folders at all?

Often I'm not sure of the name. Still, the question remains, "Why are the icons only arranged by type?
