\"Add date & time to datalog\" saves wrong

Post by borat »

If you use this function, it saves the recording in DDMMYYYY_HHmm format, meaning that when trying to open datalogs, they are sorted by the day of the month, then the month, then the year. This is a problem for people like me, who simply name each datalog the same and use the auto date function to have the logs sorted chronologically in the \"open log file\" dialog. They are all out of order because they are being sorted by the day of the month first. Clicking \"sort by date\" doesn't help, since the logfiles have their \"date modified\" property updated when you load them for viewing. Putting the date in YYYYMMDD_HHmm format would ensure proper chronological sorting when viewing by filename. Saving the view preferences of the open log file dialog would be really handy as well. I prefer \"detail\" view, and it always defaults to \"list\"
