Adrian,
The control panel is actually in alphabetical order when 'small icons' is
selected. However, it is not possible to choose the 'list' option and
consequently the window is separated into three columns. So, if you want to
quick search for, say, 'folder options', then press the 'f' key which will take
you to 'flash player' as this is the first occurrence of items beginning with
'f'. press the right cursor key which will take you to 'folder options'. As the
cursor key does not wrap, it will stay on 'folder options' until you either
press the left cursor key or up or down cursor keys. Just remember that there
are 3 items per row, so if it is not on that row, then it is probably on the
next row down.
HTH.
John.

It's not available, that's what I was saying, it'll be better if it was
possible. Otherwise I find the icons a bit jumbled up.

Hi
The control panel in small icons is a jumble, I think it should be sorted in to
alphabetical order once you have changed to small icons.

Mike the guy was OK but I could tell that a hearing impaired person (did not
think when posting the link) might have had difficulty in hearing him. He was
of course demonstrating it visually. It was interesting though as I then went
on to read Mo's response to you giving same instructions. Now I tend to just
tab around and find it OK but I guess you found all that too slow. May have a
look at changing to small icons though to see what that is like. Presumably it
gives you a list form. What is this converter thing
(Dolphin) that you refer to. I use Supernova but have not heard of it.
Cheers, Alfe
