Summary0006575: Recent Sessions list should be sorted by date; most recent sessions at top of list.
DescriptionRecent Sessions list should be sorted by date; most recent sessions should top the list.

Similarly, snapshots in a session should be sorted by date.

-Showing- the date would be nice as well, but I've made that a separate, lower-priority issue.
TagsNo tags attached.

Session-dialog is pre-sorted since Ardour 4.2-278-gde53fac (sessions only, not snapshots).

At least when having lots of sessions in the recent list it's quite tedious to search for a specific session if they are not sorted alphabetically.

So I prefer to keep the case insensitive alphabetical sorting as an option - possibly changing the behaviour by clicking on the headers.

Since Ardour 4.2-319-gf2f7a21 the date is displayed, and the columns are user-sortable.
The most recently used sort-column is remembered.

The default (very first time) is to sort by name, but that can be changed.

re "Similarly, snapshots in a session should be sorted by date"

Does that refer to the right-side "Snapshots" editor-list, or the treeview in the recent-session dialog (or both)?

The editor-list is not yet sortable.

I've attached a photo of the recent sessions dialog in windows. The API we are using doesn't seem to report the modification time correctly.

Which version of windows is that? What File-system? Is this a built from nightly.ardour.org

This is worrying g_stat() and st_mtime are used in various other places as well (audio and peak files most notably).

I've tested on window7 64bit, NTFS with todays' nightly-built and cannot reproduce. It works fine. screenshot is coming.
