i have MANY MANY MANY bookmarks. When i go to the bookmark manager, i can sort
alphabetically. this sorts them properly. when i leave the bookmark manager
and click Bookmarks at the top of the window, they are still in the original
haphazard order.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.book mark a few pages
2.click on bookmark manager and sort them by name
3.close bookmark manager and click on Bookmarks
Actual Results:
nothing happens--thats the problem
Expected Results:
bookmarks should be sorted by name?
bookmark manager seems almost handicapped when you have a lot of bookmarks (i
have alot, probably over 100.)

my bookmark manager may be "broken" I have a screen shot of it. When I click
on "File bookmark" barely half of the bookmarks i have show up. I can't create
a new folder either--clicking the button does nothing. If you can tell me where
I can post the screen shot, i will.

The "file bookmarks" bug is known and already fixed in the nightlys

Firstly, I suggest you to use a newer build. The bookmark code seems to improve
a lot since 1.4a. :)
Secondly, I don't think the [View|Sort] function should modify the order of
bookmarks permanently. (although a function to sort *selected* bookmarks
permanently would be good)
If you want to sort some bookmarks permanently, you can try this workaround:
1. Open Bookmark Manager
2. Create a new folder (e.g., name it "Temp")
3. [View | Sort by <whatever>]
4. Select all the bookmarks you want to be sorted (CTRL/SHIFT CLICK to select
multiple bookmarks)
5. Drag the selected bookmarks to the "Temp" folder
6. Now, if you select [View | Unsorted], the bookmarks in "Temp" should still be
in sorted order
