Duplicates results should have the option of sorting

Open Chaiavi opened this issue 3 years ago • 6 comments

I would love to have the option to click on the table columns to gain sorting by NAME/PATH/SIZE etc

That way I could take care of the files with the most size Or group the files by path which is SUPER IMPORTANT, because many times I have duplicate file across same folders, so instead of deleting them one by one, I will be able to see the whole picture and understand that the duplicate files are from the same sources

One question about the path sort. When I am looking at a duplicate and want to sort by path to group duplicates, can I select either path in a duplicate pair?

How much work is it to make the sorting by size work in either the images deduplication or the video deduplication. It would be nice to either sometimes keep the highest quality (biggest file) or best compression (shortest file). Clicking on "Size" in the result list seems to have no effect in Czkawka version 5.0.0.

Is there really no way to sort the duplicates results by path (or any other attribute, except for size)? For me that's an essential feature, for the same reason Chaiavi already explained. Using 5.0.2 GUI on Windows
