Templates in Affinity Photo is sorted in wrong order


Recommended Posts

This is a common mistake and should probably be both easy and fast to fix.

I am using version 1.9.1.979 which at the time of writing is the latest version (I updated 2 minutes ago).

This happens every time I open the templates.

This is not related to a specific document.

The templates gets sorted as follows:

10, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

The correct would of course be to start with 2 and end with 10. Which is how Windows sort it in the File Manager.

My OS is Windows 10 Pro - updated to the latest version.

I do not know if this ever worked. I just made a set of templates that I am planning to release for free pretty soon and discovered this.

As a workaround, if needed, you might try "02 slides", "03 slides", etc.

The macOS version seems to order is 2, 3, 10 etc. so yes this is technically a bug on Windows. I will feed this back.

Thank you. The example I used was a set of free templates I made for Affinity Photo to make it easier to make Instagram post carousels. I posted about it in the resource area here.
