Unsorted watermarks list

It's a great improvement in CE4 that a watermark can be selected for an individual gallery.

It would be even better if the watermarks selection list in the Publisher dialog would be sorted. I have over 30 watermarks, and it's a bit annoying to find the right one in what seems to be a random order.

Thanks!!!

Harald

Re: Unsorted watermarks list

Hi Harald, is there any semblance of order?  e.g. lowercase alphabetical followed by uppercase alphabetical?
Publisher obtains that list in an unconventional way.  It looks for the preferences directory that holds watermarks, opens each file, tries to find a watermark ID and title within the file and if successful adds those details to the the list of available watermarks.  The title of the watermark doesn't correspond with the file name, so the order is lost, assuming files were returned in alphabetical order in the first place.
I'll add ordering to my to-do list.

Hi Ben,

Thanks! I can't see any particular order, this is what the list looks like right now:
