Can I Re-Order Session Favorites In A Different Order e.g. Alphabetical
Hi, I am making around 100 Session Favorites. The reason is that I am accessing several hundred individual archived client folders saved on several external hard drives and I want to be able to select a handful of files from each client folder and do the File > Export > Originals procedure to duplicate these files complete with the "Include Adjustments" into a number of different Session Favorite folders (which are named by subject matter) held in one internal SSD hard drive - if you see what I mean :- )
It is laborious to then find and use any particular folder via the main Library rather than through a Session Favorites folder.
So far so good and I see from the online manual that there is no upper limit for numbers of Session Favorites.
However, there appears to be no way to re-order Session Favorites, these are in the order from oldest to newest created. I cannot re-order by drag and drop or alphabetical etc.
Any ideas, thanks.

I am not aware of any way to change the order of Session Favorites other than by the order in which you add them. This is where an archive catalog helps. Once a session is done you add it to an archive catalog of all sessions. You then can search across all your archives for those "best of" images or images that have a common theme like location, client, event type, etc.

Hello Peter - I am a Windows user. I can click on the Session Favorites folder - press right mouse button - "Sort albums and favorites by name" . Or click favorite and move. Greetings Roland

Thanks Walter and Roland. I am bang up to date on Windows 11 on a powerful Alienware laptop but I am not getting a right mouse option on the Session Favorites folder in the Libraries Tab. Oh well.

Hello Peter - I also have this function in Windows 11 - I can't currently explain why it doesn't work for you. Greetings Roland

I've tried switching the workspace to default and also tried using the mousepad on the laptop rather than my separate Logitech bluetooth mouse but to no effect. Thanks anyway.

Roland .. try right-clicking ONE of the session favorites or user collections and see if the sort option then appears.

Hello Walter - Sorting option is displayed on both - but when I click on a favorite - I get additional options e.g. Show in Explorer or set as recording folder.... Greetings Roland

I don't tend to use session favourites. But if you right click on the Session Favorites title, you get a context menu including "Sort albums and favorites by name". (On a Mac.) Doesn't that work? It seems to have worked on my Albums.

If I right click on an individual Favorite folder I do get a greyed out "Sort albums and favorites by name" in the popup as seen in the attached JPEG.
However this option cannot become live as I cannot select multiple Favorites simultaneously and there is no right click pop-up option at all when trying to use the master Session Favorites folder
