I plan to change 13.2 to leap.
I have just installed leap 42.1 to replace 13.2
Laptop ASUS G75VW 24Gb of ram.
Done a fresh install.
Folder / , folder /home and folder /root has been formatted during install.
Installed language is English, keyboard layout is french.
In kate documents panel,iIs there any tips to have documents sorted.
They should be sorted alphabetically by filename.
And if you right-click on the panel, there’s an “Sort By” sub menu where you can choose to sort by file path and opening order.
You can choose the default in Kate’s settings.
Or do you want to have “natural” sorting?
Like yast20.txt coming before yast100.txt, not after?
Well, that’s not implemented in Kate AFAICS. Feel free to file a bug report/wishlist entry at http://bugs.kde.org/.
In 13.2 both dolphin and kate were KDE4 based, in 42.1 they are KF5 based.
In KDE4, dolphin’s settings for this actually changed the global KDE settings for sorting things.
In KF5, the dolphin developers decided to change this and use their own setting now, because dolphin’s settings should not have effect on the rest of the system for seemingly unrelated stuff.
And kate now just uses non-“natural” sorting in its document panel apparently.
There is no setting for this and it doesn’t use the global setting either (from ~/.config/kdeglobals).
As I wrote, feel free to report this at http://bugs.kde.org/.
I’d consider this as a missing/unimplemented feature as I wrote, or call it a “porting bug” if you want.

Enable numericMode for sorting document list in filetree
Turns on "natural" sorting for the document list in the filetree addon,
so that e.g. 10 comes after 9, not before.
That's how the KDE4 version behaved too.
FIXED-IN: 17.04.1

I don’t see any things to do :
Enable numericMode for sorting document list in filetree
That means that this change has been committed to the KDE source repository, and it will be in 17.04.1.
So the file list in the documents panel will be sorted “naturally” in kate 17.04.1 or higher (will be in Leap 42.3 as well).
Yes, but that definitely won’t happen for 42.1, which will be out of support in about a week.
As I wrote, kate 17.04 (with this “fix”) will be in Leap 42.3, or you can get it for 42.2 from the KDE:Applications repo.
We could release that change for 42.2 as official update too, but that would need an openSUSE bug report.
