Jerry -

Sorry for the delayed response, I didn't realize this thread had been updated. I've downloaded the new version and will let you know how it goes. Thanks!

Tim

I'm thinking of adding the user interface for this new feature to the Collection document's tab Settings > Sorting, like this:



Say that our Collection document is set to “Sort alpha-numerically by Name” (the default setting) and a certain parent folder has the following arragement of 3 folders and 3 bookmarks with the following names:

A Folder
Some Bookmark
Another Bookmark
Nice Bookmark
Another Folder
Some Folder

Referring to the screenshot above, let's say you bulleted “Folders over Bookmarks” and switched on “Sort folders only”, then clicked in the menu: Bookmarks > Sort all (or sorting is done automatically, during a syncing operation).  The result would be that the parent folder described above would be rearranged to look like this:

A Folder
Another Folder
Some Folder
Some Bookmark
Another Bookmark
Nice Bookmark

Importantly, note that, like the existing Bookmarks above folders and vice versa settings, there is only one Sort folders/bookmarks only setting which will apply to all folders in the whole Collection document.  That is, you could not have different settings per folder.  This is in the interest of keeping things as simple as possible, which is best for developers and best for user.

What do you think?

OK, Tim, I'll think about it some more.  Maybe it would not be so confusing.  You know, though, someone needs to push back on feature creep 

Hello, Tim.

Thank you for contacting us.

There is no way to do that, and my initial reaction is that adding such an option on top of the many options for sorting our apps already have would cause more confusion than happiness among users.

I suggest that you mark  to be unsorted any such parent folder in which you want the subfolders to be sorted but the bookmarks to be unsorted.  When you add a new folder, which I presume is not very often, manually move it into alphabetical order.
