Sigil Import Issue
I don't know if this has been posted and answered before, a quick search didn't turn up anything, but I am having a problem with the way Sigil imports multiple HTML files at once. It imports them in reverse order.
What I do: I have 20 HTML files, one for each chapter, named chapter1.html, chapter2.html, up to chapter20.html. In the Book Browser I right click>Add Existing Files..., select my chapters, and press enter. When the chapters appear in the Book Browser they are in reverse order (20 first, 19,18). I had this problem on v5.3, upgraded to 5.902 and still have the problem. Am I missing something or doing something wrong? |

I haven't seen that reported anywhere - and its definitely the case that they end up in reverse order. Easily fixed for the next release.
In the meantime you can select the files, right-click on them and use Sort. |

I used to have a mp3 tagger program that inconsistently did this, the (simple) way I got round it was selecting the files in reverse order on importing.
But as meme says, Quote:

That was one of the things I tried. Click last file, shift-click first file. Still same problem. I completely missed the sort option before I posted, but since meme pointed it out, that works for now.
