\section{File View}
The File View menu deals with options relating to how the File Browser
displays files.
%
\begin{description}
\item[Sort Case Sensitive:]
If this option is set to \setting{Yes}, all files that start with upper case
letters will be listed first, followed by all files that begin with lower
case letters. If this option is set to NO, then case will be ignored when
sorting files.
\item[Sort Directories:]
This option controls how Rockbox sorts folders. The default is to sort
them alphabetically. \setting{By date} sorts them with the oldest folder first.
\setting{By newest date} sorts them with the newest folder first.
\item[Sort Files:]
This option controls how Rockbox sorts files. All of the options for
\setting{Sort Directories} are available in this option. In addition, there
is a \setting{By type} option which sorts files alphabetically by their type
(such as \fname{.mp3}) then alphabetically within each type.
\item[\label{ref:ShowFiles}Show Files:]
This option controls which files are displayed in the File Browser.
%
\begin{description}
\item[All:] The \setting{File Browser} displays all files and directories.
Extensions are shown. No files or directories are hidden.
\item[Supported:] The \setting{File Browser} displays all directories and
files supported by Rockbox (see \reference{ref:Supportedfileformats}).
Files and directories starting with \fname{.} (\emph{dot}) or with the
\emph{hidden} flag set are hidden.
\item[Music:] The \setting{File Browser} displays only folders, playlists and
the supported \emph{audio} file formats. Extensions are stripped. Files and
directories starting with \fname{.} or with the ``hidden'' flag set are
hidden.
\item[Playlists:] The \setting{File Browser} displays only directories and playlists,
for simplified navigation.
\item[Database:] This shows the files based on the \setting{Database}
information, thus disabling the \setting{File Browser}. You can browse the
database by various tags and search them. Only information present
in music file tags are shown. For a detailed description of
\setting{Database} refer to \reference{ref:database}.
\end{description}
\item[Follow Playlist:]
This option determines what directory the \setting{File Browser} displays
first. If \setting{Follow Playlist} is set to \setting{Yes}, when you enter
the \setting{File Browser} from the WPS, you will find yourself in the same
directory as the currently playing file. If \setting{Follow Playlist} is set
to \setting{No}, when you enter the \setting{File Browser} from the WPS, you
will find yourself in the directory you were in when you last left the
\setting{File Browser}.
\item[Show Icons:]
Rockbox has the ability to display an icon to the left of the file
in the \setting{File Browser}. For details of these icons, please see
\reference{ref:Supportedfileformats}.
\item[Show Path:]
If this setting is set to \setting{Full Path} the full path to the current
directory will be displayed on the first line in the \setting{File Browser}.
If set to \setting{Current Directory Only} only the name of the current
directory will be displayed.
\item[Database:]
This option allows you to configure the database.
See \reference{ref:database} for more information about using
the database.
