If you manipulate epubs outside of Sigl and rezip the epub file, some archive managers might actually display the files in the order in which they were physically added to a zip file. However, most apps will sort the files by file name (see screen capture).
If you resave an epub file, Sigil might save the files in a different order in the zip file, however, none of this matters for epub files. The only requirements is that the mimetype file needs to be added first to the archive.
1. How exactly did you create the epub before you opened it for the first time with Sigil?
2. What kind of archive manager do you use?
