Re-organizing a Collection

Larla · 06-27-2016, 08:00 AM

After manually recreating my entire collection structure on my new Paperwhite, I find that the order of some of the books within certain collections is less than perfect. Is there someway to change the order of books within a collection?

Thanks --

Collections are unordered, but with newer firmware (5.6.x+) you have the same options of imposing an order (by recency, author, title, etc) in collections as you do at the top level.

Thanks NullNix -- I didn't realize that I had those option inside my collection. That really solves the issues I had.

Umm, I can do that on my Kindle Touch as well. I can't swear to the Kindle Keyboard, but I think you could do it on that too?

To the best of my knowledge, you've always been able to do it. It's definitely not a feature that was new with the 5.6.x firmware.

Been there a Long time! Same options when I had my K3.
