Post subject:  Reverse Sorting of Chapters

The normal sorting in ascending order:

Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3 etc.

is okay for most audiobooks. However, I came across an unusual situation with Stephen King's The Running Man, which uses a countdown format:

Minus 100
Minus 99
Minus 98 etc.

Without adding 100 chapters one by one (no thanks!), I cannot figure out how to add a batch of files in this descending order. Is this possible? If not, it would be nice to have a special option to make this possible by reversing the sort order.

I tried to change the sort order in the Finder window and then drag the files, shown in descending order, into Audiobook. However, AB changed the order to ascending. Would it be possible to enable reverse sort order by forcing AB to use whatever order is shown in the Finder when one drags files from the Finder?

That is a highly unusual situation indeed!

Unfortunately, Audiobook Builder isn't capable of sorting Chapters in descending order when numbered files like that are added. We can certainly look into adding additional Chapter sorting features to a future release, though. Thanks!
