DF Chat Enhancements: Alternative ordering for archive entries #422

Closed jagoe closed 2 years ago

jagoe commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I retroactively converted my chat log of about 2.5 years into archives, but I also wanted to keep a single archive of all entries and I did the archiving in that order. I have two problems:

  1. My current list consists of sessions 1 through n, followed by the complete chat log archive (since I created them in that order). The next time I'll archive a session, the complete log will be placed in what's basically a random location.
  2. For me it would make sense to have the list inverted, i.e. new archives show up at the top instead of at the bottom.

Describe the solution you'd like My prefered solution would be to introduce folders, which would each offer three sorting options: Ascending, descending and manual.

Describe alternatives you've considered (Optional)

  1. The cleanest solution to solve issue 1 would be to be able to invert the display order (from newest to oldest). That would not solve my second issue.
  2. The simplest solution to solve both issues would be to allow for manual sorting, though that would involve effort from the user.

Additional context (Optional) If any of the solution(s) get accepted, I'd be willing to draft a PR.

Just noticed there's alphabetical sorting, which solves both of my issues and wasn't even something I'd thought of 🤦
