Folders window: reverse the order?

I name my folders starting with the shoot date in the YYMMDD format. I would like to see my folders listed in reverse order: most recent shoot first. Seems like a reasonable request; is it possible?

Thanks. Where do I set this preference? I've hunted everywhere.
In my case, since all folders start with the shoot date, even in alphabetical order, it will be in date sequence; only if I did two or more shoots on the same day would letters come in to play, so whether it lists most recent at top or reverse alphabetical, the result would be pretty much the same.

  • Can I reverse the order of finder lists or icons?

    Hello,
    I am finding some problems with Lion that I never seemed to have with Snow Leopard and would very much appreciate someone's help.
    To cut a long story short I want to reverse the order of the files in finder, either in list or icon view (or maybe any kind of view). At the moment they are in date created order, but I have also tried in name order and cannot see any way to reverse the order.
    At present the are show the newest file first but I want to see them in oldest first as they always were for me in OSX 10.6
    Also... in date created view they appear in groups (eg previous 7 days, previous 30 days) I have never seen this before and find it particulalry annoying. I'm sure some people love it but for me it is one of the things that I most hated about windows, but at least in Windows I found it easy to turn off (along with reversing order!). Can anyone tell me how to stop OSX from doing this?
    Much obliged,
    Pablo

    In Finder icon view, click the Arrange button and select which column you'd like to sort by.
    In Finder list view, click the top header of any column to sort by that column. Clicking the same header again reverses the sort order (and the small 'arrow' at the end of the column name reverses direction too).
    And using Finder, View, Customize Toolbar the Finder window toolbar can be customized to display icons only, text only or both, as well as adding additional icons to the default toolbar:

  • How can I reverse the order of podcasts so I can listen in cronological order

    How can I reverse the order of podcasts so I can listen in cronological order!

    What I did was create a playlist for the podcasts and keep it sorted in reverse date order, which puts the oldest first. To prevent it from automatically playing the next podcast, I actually mark all podcasts as "skip when shuffling", and then play in shuffle mode. I also make sure all my podcasts have a genre of "podcast"; I discovered that if you use media type, the playlist doesn't update correctly on the iPod classic
    So, what I've got is a playlist of the form: (play count = 0) and (genre = podcast), sorted in reverse date order.

    I.g your column Order is A,B,C  With their correspodingin values in the cells A1:C2     
    Just change the order Map C1->D1, B1->D2, A1 -> D3 and with the values as well...
    This is only way if you want to reverse the order of legends..You can set any properites in the column char or if that matter any chart .There is no such property..
    I hope this helps......
    If you find that is done thru some other ways please do let me know...

  • How to reverse the order of a bunch of still images in an iMovie Project

    Hello,
    I'm making a stop motion animation using iMovie'09. I need to reverse the order of a few hundred of the images that I imported.
    Does anybody know a good and time efficient way of doing this?
    Cheers,
    Onur.

    Ok, here's how have I done:
    1. Removed those images from the movie project
    2. Created a new project and added all the images which I want to reverse the order of
    3. Set the durations of the images as same as those in my first project
    4. Exported the project as a movie file
    5. Added this short movie file to the first project
    6. From clip adjustments menu, checked 'reverse'.
    There, the subset of the whole collection is displayed in the reverse order.

  • How to reverse the order of an OrderedMap?

    Is there a quick and efficient way to reverse the order of an OrderedMap?
    I'm sorta using an OrderedMap for 'breadcrumbs'. Traversing from a specific page, category by category all the way up to the top.
    For example:
    OrderedMap map = new LinkedMap();
    map.put( "Rabbit", "" );
    map.put( "Mammals", "/animals/mammals/index.jsp" );
    map.put( "Animals", "/animals/index.jsp" );
    Iterating it in my JSP view page, I get this order, which is wrong :
    Home >> Rabbit >> Mammals >> Animals
    Thats why I was wondering how I can reverse the order of the OrderedMap to get this:
    Home >> Animals >> Mammals >> Rabbit
    Thanks for reading.
    Regards,
    Stanley

    What about the following idea:
    you could write two wrapper classes:
    class ReverseOrderedMap implements OrderedMapand
    class ReverseOrderedMapIterator  implements OrderedMapIteratorIn these classes, you just map the methods
    firstKey -> lastKey
    lastKey -> firstKey
    nextKey -> previousKey
    next -> previous
    and so on. In this way, you just provide a "reversed view" on the original map.
    However, I'm not sure where elements added with put are ordered: Is it just in the sequence of addition? If yes, then the wrapped map behaves wrong, if new elements are added, because there is no corresponding "put at the begining" method. In this case, the wrapper should make the reversed map unmodifyable by implementing the put and putAll methods with throwing an exception.

  • Reverse the order of stacks list view

    Is there a way to reverse the order when viewing the contents of a stack in list view by date added?
    For example, the downloads stack: the default setting puts the most recently added at the top of the list, meaning I have to scroll up to it, rather than at the bottom, where it'd be right there above the icon to click on.
    Thanks for the help

    I completely agree with Solar Servant,
    The regular stacks view is viewable in this (very practical) direction, so why not the list variety?
    thanks for making a more usable OSX a reality

  • Is there a way to reverse the order of incoming mail in the new iPad?

    I want to reverse the order of incoming mail on my new iPad.    I want the oldest on top.  I can't seem to find where or even if I can do this.  Anyone know for sure?  Thanks!

    The Mail app only supports having the most recent at the top. You could see if any third-party email apps support it, or access your account via a browser (you can create a Safari shortcut on your iPad's homescreen for your login page).

  • How to reverse the order of a list (nodes)

    i can't figure out how to reverse the order of the values in a list of nodes. Could anyone help?
    public class IntList
         public IntNode head;
         public IntList()
              head = null;
         public void reverse()
              // I don't know how to write this
    }

    read through the list from the end to the start, putting each element into a new list. then replace the original list with the new one.
    lots of ways it can be done.
    dont ask me which is more efficient. the stack suggestion sounds pretty good.

  • Finder Issue - Folders in reverse descending order

    When Finder is open, and I select the Documents tab, I see, on the right, my folders and can open those folders to see the files within. Here, the files are alphabetically arranged from A through Z, in descending order (A at the top, and Z at the bottom).
    However, when I double-click a folder to open it, the order of files is reversed and the alphabetizing becomes inverse - with A at the bottom and Z at the top.
    How do I change this ordering to reflect a descending order?
    Thank you,
    Jay

    I also have this problem, and the work around works for me, but...
    This has got to be a bug, right?  There is nothing, anywhere that I can see, that controls whether it is alpha ascending or alpha descending.  The "fix", such as it is, is to ignore the Arrange By menu and use the column headers to select the sort order. 
    In fact, to bulletproof it (because I will forget eventually) the best solution would be to remove the "arrange" menu altogether because it does not do anything that sorting by column headers does not do.  In fact, it does less.  In even more fact, it does worse than less. 
    Apple is keenly persuing minimalism.  So why does the arrange menu exist?  And if it does exist, why did no-one test that it works rationally?
    The corollary of all this is that the Arrange By menu does the same thing as clicking the menu headers, but when you use it, it disables them. 
    I have been banging my head on my desk since I bought my new machine with Mt Lion on it about the wretched headers not setting the sort order and it is because some - numbskull is not the _only_ word that comes to mind - has decided one selection mechanism for the sort function should disable the other. ¿Eh?

  • How do I reverse the order in which files appear in Icon View option?

    I took a lot of pictures on a trip recently, which I have uploaded to a folder in Finder. When I click on View Options and then Keep Arranged by Date Created, they get rearranged so that the most recent appears at the top, and the first ones taken are at the bottom. How can I reverse this order, so that they appear in chronological order?
    Thanks,
    Richard

    There might be another way.
    There are utilities which can batch-rename files, including options that sort by date, begin all the resulting filenames with a common prefix, and then add a sequential "padded" filename suffix. If you then display the resulting collection of files in alphabetical order (as in Finder's Arrange by Name in icon view), they should be sorted chronologically.
    I haven't tried any of these, but the site for [A Better Finder Rename|http://www.publicspace.net/ABetterFinderRename/index.html], shareware, states:
    "A Better Finder Rename knows how to extract EXIF shooting date and time information from digital camera images and exploit them in creating sequence numbers or adding time and date information to the file name. "
    There may be suitable freeware alternatives -search for *file renamer* in [Version Tracker|http://www.versiontracker.com/macosx>.
