AEM Assets - Content Tree alphabetical sort by name?

Hello -- Is there a way to get the Content Tree view in AEM Assets to appear in alphabetical order by folder/asset name? Clicking Sort By and ascending/descending order only sorts the actual folder/assets, but doesn't affect the Content Tree.

Short answer NO.

But here are some options:

 

1) You could use sling:OrderedFolder nodes instead of regular nt:folders. This will keep the order of how the assets/folders are created organized, this may be helpful. You can check this for more info https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31365528/difference-between-ntfolder-slingfolder-slingorderedfolder-in-aem 

 

2) You will have to overlay that functionality to re-order prior to rendering the results.
