Media ListView

Questions

Hi folks

I’m so new to Umbraco, you can smell the newness :slight_smile:
I need to do two things

  1. Display the media treeview as folders first alphabetically and then display files in any order (everything that isn’t a folder type).
  2. Modify the Media ListView to also show folder items first in alphabetical order and then files in any order.

What I have done so far is add a class that inherits from the ApplicationEventHandler and added an event to listen for when the tree nodes are being rendered.

public class RegisterEvents : ApplicationEventHandler 
{ 
     protected override void ApplicationStarted(UmbracoApplicationBase umbracoApplication, ApplicationContext applicationContext)
     {
        TreeControllerBase.TreeNodesRendering += TreeControllerBase_TreeNodesRendering;
     }
}

Inside my TreeControllerBase_TreeNodesRendering event I do a bunch of stuff to check if I’m working with a folder etc. But it works and orders the treeview correctly as can be seen in the screenshot below.

My problem however is to figure out a way to do this on the Media ListView. What would be the best way to accomplish this?
