Use default and standardized options to order files in combined proofs

Description - Currently when working with combined proofs the order of files happens according to the default drag-and-drop option. After dragging files into the proof's creation menu, some files will be allocated "randomly". There is no way to order files by naming (A-Z), or other meta data information of the file. We are only able to drag-and-drop them manually. As we cannot see a preview of the files, and when working with large amounts of images in one proof, this becomes highly inefficient. Furthermore, when working with two or more versions of the same images we cannot guarantee that the right images will appear in the side-by-side comparison feature.

 

Why is this feature important to you - We are not able to work efficiently with large, combined proofs.

 

How would you like the feature to work - We would like to have a dropdown next to the file file list, to choose how to sort the list of files in the creation menu of a new proof (based on metadata, like the name). In addition, it would be great to be able to readjust the order of images within an existing proof.

 

Current Behaviour - Currently there is no option to reorder files in combined proofs after creation, and only the option to manually adjust the order of files, after uploading files into the proof's creation menu.
