I had never realised there was an option for setting the collections 
preferences in the hamburger. But now I have discovered this and set the sort 
film rolls by folder I can navigate my collections so much more easily when I 
have multiple drives. Thanks for helping me stumble upon this option.

Subject: [darktable-user] default tagging case sensitivity harms the 
collections custom sort in lighttable

Hey, thank you, I didn't know this.

In trying it out I found that it is better to turn on "tags case sensitivity" 
in the collections settings of the lighttable. When selecting a collection 
according to a tag while the collections setting is on the default 
"non-(case)-sensitive", the custom sorting may not work as expected. The tags 
are shown entirely in lowercase when selecting, while what is being displayed 
may contain some pictures tagged with uppercase characters. Trying the custom 
sort was not working well. So the solution was turn on "tags case sensitivity". 
 When selecting a collection, the tags are then shown in lowercase and 
uppercase as they were initially assigned. Eventually I had to re-tag to have 
consistent use of upper- and lowercase.

Regards,
Marc.

If you choose in lighttable "custom sort", you can change the order of images 
directly by dragging.
