Arrange files by name, size, type, or when they were changed.

# Sort files and folders

You can sort files in different ways in a folder, for example by sorting them in order of date or file size. See below for a list of common ways to sort files. See for information on how to change the default sort order.

The way that you can sort files depends on the folder view that you are using. You can change the current view using the list or icon buttons in the toolbar.

# Icon view

To sort files in a different order, click the view options button in the toolbar and choose By Name, By Size, By Type, By Modification Date, or By Access Date.

As an example, if you select By Name, the files will be sorted by their names, in alphabetical order. See for other options.

You can sort in the reverse order by selecting Reversed Order from the menu.

# List view

To sort files in a different order, click one of the column headings in the file manager. For example, click Type to sort by file type. Click the column heading again to sort in the reverse order.

In list view, you can show columns with more attributes and sort on those columns. Click the view options button in the toolbar, pick Visible Columns… and select the columns that you want to be visible. You will then be able to sort by those columns. See for descriptions of available columns.

# Ways of sorting files

## Naziv

Sorts alphabetically by the name of the file.

## Veličina

Sorts by the size of the file (how much disk space it takes up). Sorts from smallest to largest by default.

## Vrsta

Sorts alphabetically by the file type. Files of the same type are grouped together, then sorted by name.

## Posljednja promjena

Sorts by the date and time that a file was last changed. Sorts from oldest to newest by default.
