Hi Mike,
I have scores of Setlists, as I use MobileSheets to organize my contra dance music, where sets have only two or three tunes. Like some MS users, I utilize prefixes to group the names of the sets which are in our current Play List. For example, the majority of sets are jigs and reels and I simply use the prefix xJD_ for those sets (JD stands for our band, Just Desserts). I prefix our waltzes with xJDW_ and I group other sets and songs that our band is working on with the prefix xJDWO_ .
On my PC, the titles of some these setlists names are alphabetized as follows, allowing the prefixes to do their thing:
xJD_Teviot Bridge
xJD_Willafjord
xJDW_Andrea's Waltz
xJDW_Yarlington
xJDWO_Day Tripping
On my MS Setlist, these same titles are displayed in this order, as if the underscore weren't even there:
xJD_Teviot Bridge
xJDW_Andrea's Waltz
xJD_Willafjord
xJDWO_Day Tripping
xJDW_Yarlington
I couldn't find anything in the Library settings regarding this kind of functionality, so I would like to ask if you could consider a Library setting that would sort all lists (setlists, collections, songs) the same way they are sorted on a PC in File Explorer? This would support the use of prefixes in those names and would make it possible to easily compare lists of songs displayed on MS with the same list displayed on a PC.
If that kind of functionality already exists, please forgive my insufficient research on this matter, otherwise, thank you for your consideration.
