Created attachment 143518 [details] Screenshot showing files out of order In the "project" view and in "files" view, files appear out of order when having a combination of uppercase and lowercase files. Seems that NetBeans is using case sensitive order (similar to ASCII, where uppercase letters come first), instead string case insensitive order (which is much more intuitive for the developers). I've not tested if the same apply to package names (primarly because I don't use packages with upper case letters), but I suspect is the same. I don't think it is something complicated: somewhere should be a sorter or comparator to set the files order in the tree - just need to tell it to be case insentitive in the comparision. Regards, Edson.
case in-sensitive look like more readable and smarter.
(In reply to fortruth from comment #1) > case in-sensitive look like more readable and smarter. Perhaps, I fell more confortable to see everything in real order, no matter its case. Also, as per Holger Stenzhorn (NetCat member) proposal, may we have a option to choose Case-sensitive or Case-insensitive?
