I have a problem with the image gallery. When I open Images in Gallery, the images need to be sorted in the descending order. But in reality, they are sorted according to date. Can anyone tell me where in the code the images are sorted by default as soon as the Images folder is opened?
This is all a little confusing. Need to be sorted in the descending order - descending regarding to what? File name? Pixel size? Byte size on disk?
The image gallery application is part of the S60 standard applications in ROM / read-only flash memory. How do intend to modify that, after you learned where the code is? And how to modify without access to the source code of that application?
I need the images to be sorted in the descending order of their names by default as soon as I open the Images folder in the Gallery application. for eg: image-05, image-04,etc. upto image-01.
As a little hack, you could write a small program that manipulates the modification dates of the files so that the date sort of the standard Symbian application will correspond with the alpha sort that you want.
A hack, as I said, but like Andreas already mentioned, the clean solution would probably be to write your own gallery application, which certainly takes much longer...

Hi,

Thanks in advance...

If there is no such sorting option to be seen in the Gallery application menu, you have to implement your own Gallery app which does what you want.
