I just upgraded my portable version of LC.  But before I did, I remember seeing one of my folder menus sorted into subdirectories of A-C, D-F, G-I, etc.  I just copied the new files over the old files, so I'm thinking I wiped out some settings somewhere.  I've looked through all the options and watched all the videos, but I can't seem to find the settings for this.  Is this possible, or was I hallucinating?

You can tell LBC to sort and arrange the contents of a folder into SECTIONS by letter (though it's not subdirectories):

I swear I saw something where I clicked on the Folder Button and I got a submenu
A - C
D - F
G - I
....
I have all the settings you have mentioned.

I don't think such a feature exists, though it's not a terrible idea to add..

That would be great.  Or allow the sub menu to expand horizontally instead of having to scroll up and down with the little arrows when you have a lot of items.  And both would be awesome.  Great program.  Thanks.
