cannot sort files in External Resources alphabetically
Originally submitted to Google Code by steven.j... on 30 May 2013
There is a feature to sort Keywords alphabetically which is really helpful to organize them.
However, files under External Resources cannot be sorted in the same way which brings quite a difficulty to review them if many files are included.
I am wondering if there is any solutions or workaround. Thanks!

If you have a saved project and you have added External Resources during one Ride session, you can force the file sort by reloading project using File menu - select project name (project name should be visible between Save All and Exit actions). External Resources are sorted when Project is loaded.
This could be feature enhancement for the future.

Tried the project reload work around that Mika suggested, but the files still remained unsorted.
We have around 50+ Resource files and its growing. It is hard to locate specific files, and we have at times missed locating some and actually recreated them because we weren't able to find them in the unsorted list.
Would help us immensely if Resource files become sorted.
Thanks!

btw -- the work around that mika.han suggested does not work, the external resources are still not sorted alphabetically.
