thats exactly how i type it in and when done it sorts itself as 1 then instead of the number 2 the number 10 then 11 through 19 then 2 then 20 and so forth so i see no visible difference from your screen shot but the result is different when it sorts the library or send it to the nook

I know from experience that it can be frustrating when people don't understand what you're asking for, but I assure you, the senior members of this forum are genuinely eager to help. Show some patience... I promise they are showing you plenty. I'm baffled by your seeking help from people and then saying that if they don't understand, "Oh, well. I'm lazy." i.e. "Tough. Figure it out. And, by the way, help me now."
Also, I said nothing about your grammar, spelling, or punctuation. I'll repeat: sometimes it's hard to articulate visual problems in words -- regardless of one's linguistic abilities. That's why I suggested you might "help them help you" by providing a screenshot. I repeat that suggestion now. As for this: Quote:

If he's getting the ASCII sort problem he describes in calibre, there are two likely ways. First, he may be putting the numbers into the title field. I suspect that's the problem, but it's already been mentioned. I've also seen numbers used in the name of the series. It's possible to get a series name with a number in brackets, followed by the series_index in brackets. If he's seeing two numbers, the first will sort ASCII and the second will sort numerically.
Finally, if he's doing comics inside ZIP or RAR, the filenames of images stored in the compressed file are often created without the leading zero, and that gives out of order display problems when reading the CBZ, or CBR. Like others, I can't exactly figure out the problem here, but perhaps one of those comments will help. |

@GoldThreader
![]() Are we discussing Books out of order or Images (page files) within A BOOK, being out of order? |

Books being out of order but it seemed like he mentioned that calibre could get the order wrong for individual files within say a zip too depending how those were numbered and with like 30 or 40 image files within a chapter id rather not go in ad edit each file name

To sort the Series in the Library, click the column header (series), click again if you wish to reverse the order.
Screen shot please showing the wrong sort. BTW to sort in order, the Series name must be exactly the same. foo Foo FOo are all different series to Calibre |

ok well putting 0's in front of the 1 digits numbers worked for fixing the series but I still have the other problems and now a question so it seemed like Starson17 was saying that its possible for it to reorder the files in say a zip if there not individually numbered properly is this possible to happen? and any help on the other things?

umm ok? There's no reason to delete this thread I am seeking help or alternatives to this program. Just because you think I'm bashing you or something doesn't constitute a reason to close a thread and there's no reason to post a screen shot when someone posted one already in the way we needed also I said that changing the numbers worked for that specific problem I don't know what your beef with me is but I kindly ask you to refrain from posting such messages

Thread and Message are not the same thing. If English is not your native tongue, I apologize, but we are working hard to help and you have failed to follow important advice (a picture of YOUR problem is worth 1000 words in any language). It also appears you are working on 2 different problems. If so, they belong in 2 different threads (the second sounds like a Conversion Thread) |

Do me a favor and hover your mouse over the top of the series column that was sorting incorrectly and tell me exactly what the lookup/search name is, see attached for example. Quote:
However now that you have responded to a non-post and I have responded to you about the same non-post I think we'll leave it in so maybe others who have also been confused can gain clarity. |
