(sorry for the spam - the same email a before but without HTML formatting) Hi darktable development team, when I'm using the darktable tagging panel I'm often confused about the order of tags by priority. My wish would be to have an alphabetic sort order of these tags. Digging around in Redmine, I found a similar feature request three years ago: http://www.darktable.org/redmine/issues/8793 Reading the comments at this feature request and digging inside the code (dt_tag_get_suggestions() in src/common/tags.c) I understand, that an alphabetic order is not compatible with an order by popularity. Because I think, it is a realy good idea to have alphabetic sort order, I would like to hear your opinion about the following idea: - introduce a configuration switch to enable alphabetic sort order for tags (e.g. "plugins/lighttable/tagging/alphabetic_tag_order") - use this config switch to distinguish inside dt_tag_get_suggestions() between order by priority (as is) and alphabetic order (new) - alphabetic order could something like: SELECT T.name, T.id FROM tags T WHERE T.name LIKE '?1' ORDER BT T.name * if needed/wanted unused or "darktable|%" keywords could be excluded) If you think this would make sense and if you think, it has a chance to be added to darktable with future releases, I could try to implement it and provide a patch to you. Kind regards Zergman
