Summary0010372: Plugin Manager - Sort numbered items in sequential order
DescriptionPlugin Manager
Suggesting to make numbered items sort in sequential order.
Can be confusing when they are not.

Example:
Many LSP plugins experience this issue.
For example the
"LSP Spectrum Analyzer" plugins

Current Sorting
Spectrum Analyzer x1
Spectrum Analyzer x12
Spectrum Analyzer x16
Spectrum Analyzer x2
Spectrum Analyzer x4
Spectrum Analyzer x8

Desired Sequential Sorting
Spectrum Analyzer x1
Spectrum Analyzer x2
Spectrum Analyzer x4
Spectrum Analyzer x8
Spectrum Analyzer x12
Spectrum Analyzer x16

Thank You

Additional InformationI will make reply below showing links to other items that also experience non sequential number sorting issue if anyone is interested.

@gfontanilla
Thank you for not stopping at a particular instance but seeing this all the way through throughout Ardour.
I make many little update posts that maybe are viewed as not being important, but I feel that these little fixes/updates can really add up to better workflow/user experience.
These updates you worked on were ones I was really hoping would be added, this is so helpful to me (and hopefully other users as well).
Thank you again for taking the time to work on all of these updates/posts I made about this topic, I really appreciate it.
I will close all these posts now (if I am allowed by Mantis action limitations)
