Hi,

Can you please consider adding drag and drop reordering of folders and collections added to COSMOS? I have a lot of sample packs that I want to be able to individually enable and disable and it would be nice not to be stuck with the (less than ideal) order I added them in.

Thanks!

Hi,

Agree fully with the request. An option to sort the Local Folders alphabetically would suit my many sample packs to reflect the overall music genre. The only way I have thought to give some structure to the current process is to prefix the individual folder with a capital letter and space although it would still require searching through all the folders.

Cheers

Yes!!! Cosmos needs to be able to reorder folders and collections

As I mentioned here…

[Cosmos Folder Ordering](https://forum.waves.com/t/cosmos-folder-ordering/5116/5)

> Not to mention, sidebar resizing.
> 
> I realise Cosmos was built to help us break out of our habits and help us discover sounds we may not have otherwise used. Many times you do want a specific sound and the folders themselves act like a filter.
> 
> For example, if we’re looking for an 808 bass sound it’s because we specifically need an 808 bass sound, or something like it. If we know we can find a few of them in our “Trap” folder than we’re going to want to select that folder, effectively filtering everything else out. Not having some kind of ordered list potentially makes the task of finding this folder harder and slows down the workflow.
> 
> Cosmos will come to its own if we can find the folder, then the sound we want quickly. From there we can elect to use Cosmos for what it was designed to do and use this sound as a basis for finding similar types of sounds, but may work better for our given needs.
> 
> We can still do this. But by not being able to organise our folders or even see entire folder names can really slow down the process.
