So I just picked up a used Kobo Touch for my son's use, and went to load a bunch of kids books onto it from Calibre. Don't get me started on the requirement to register it with a Kobo account.

The thing I would like insight on is the sort order of the "My Collections". On my Kobo, all of the "collections" seem to be in alphabetical order, with my "Asimov" collection at on the first page, and the "Tom Swift" collection on one of the later pages. With this new one, it is all random. I've got the "Tom Swift Jr" collection as the first collection, the "Asimov - Isaac" collection second, then "Diskworld" then "Apprentice Adept". Within each collection I can set the sort order to "by Title", but how do I set the sort order of the group of collections?

On my Kobo, did I just luck out and happen to have Callibre send over the collection info in alphabetical order?

The new Touch is running Software Version 3.2.0 (d0a9bf18ea, 2/11/14) which it downloaded as part of its setup.
