Subject: TC9: View Modes Sort Order - Sort Directories Like Files?

Using TC9 beta 3.
Is it possible to setup a View Mode to sort directories like files and override the default sort directories always by name?
I want to set up a View Mode in a certain folder where the files AND directories are sorted by date (descending). For example, this is what I want in a folder defined in Auto Switch Mode:
This is how I want every other folder to sort when I sort by date (descending):
To summarize:
In the Auto Switch folder I want sort directories like files.
In every other folder I want sort directories always by name.
I tried to set it up but the View Mode won't override the Sorting Directories configuration. Here's an excerpt from my wincmd.ini:

I want to set up a View Mode in a certain folder where the files AND directories are sorted by date (descending). For example, this is what I want in a folder defined in Auto Switch Mode:
| Code: |
| c:\TC_test\Special_Folder\ c_folder\ <DIR> 03/03/2016 03:33a b_folder\ <DIR> 02/02/2015 02:22a a_folder\ <DIR> 01/01/2014 01:11a c_file.txt 8 03/03/2016 03:33a b_file.txt 8 02/02/2015 02:22a a_file.txt 8 01/01/2014 01:11a |
This is how I want every other folder to sort when I sort by date (descending):
| Code: |
| c:\TC_test\Normal_Folders\ a_folder\ <DIR> 01/01/2014 01:11a b_folder\ <DIR> 02/02/2015 02:22a c_folder\ <DIR> 03/03/2016 03:33a c_file.txt 8 03/03/2016 03:33a b_file.txt 8 02/02/2015 02:22a a_file.txt 8 01/01/2014 01:13a |
To summarize:
In the Auto Switch folder I want sort directories like files.
In every other folder I want sort directories always by name.
I tried to set it up but the View Mode won't override the Sorting Directories configuration. Here's an excerpt from my wincmd.ini:
| Code: |
| [Configuration] ... SortDirsByName=1 [ViewModeSwitch] Enabled=1 ... 2_rules=+C:\TC_test\Special_Folder\*\ 2_mode=2 [ViewModes] ... 2_name=Sort Folders 2_icon= 2_options=-1|3|1||-1|-1|-1 |
