snapshots sorting order

[Jacek Poplawski]

What kind of sorting is that?

First I have snapshots from today, then snapshots from yesterday.

But first I have snapshots from early today then from late today.

They are sorted alphanumerically, treating the snapshot names as strings, not dates, in the same way that LR and File Explorer sort folder names:

"01" comes before "30". 

I agree that it's not very useful.  It would have been better for LR to name the snapshots in yyyy.mm.dd format, regardless of the language and region settings of the computer.

Of course, you can rename the snapshot at the time you create it. Give it a name that will sort in the order you prefer.
