Is it possible to add functionality to sort drives using their physical location instead of drive letter? Similar behavior you can see in My Computer window: right mouse click->Group By->Type.
For example, I have few local disks (C, X, Y) and some always mapped network disks (I, J, K). It would be very feature to sort them in this order: (C, X, Y, I, J, K).

I think simple parameter is enough that specify letters order: CXYIJKABC.
TC may add non-specified letters to end of string alphabetically to get all 26. So, if parameter is not set, we will have old display order. Or if only single letter is specified, that drive will be displayed first.
and simple index array (or even pair of index arrays - to get letter from index and back) will allow to draw and process buttons.

The TWinKey plugin can at least partially solve this problem. On the "Drive List" page two orders of drives can be set: "Alphabetic" and "Categorized". The latter one means: hard disks first, then removable, then CD-ROMs, and finally network ones.

I think, from user perspective easiest way would be to select grouping type: Normal, By Type.. or smth. without writing exact order..MVV wrote:I think simple parameter is enough that specify letters order: CXYIJKABC.

Anyway it can change when for example usb flash drive is connected.
Currently I am using TC 8 x64, so currently not a solution. But thanks for hint.Vochomurka wrote:2cerberis
