Descending Stacks

Is there a way to make new items in my Downloads stack appear at the bottom of the list instead of the top?

Right-Click or Control-Click on the Downloads Stack. A menu will appear, which will let you sort it out.

Yep, I have it sorted by date added. But it puts the newest download at the top of the list, I want it at the bottom instead.

What about Date Modified and Date Created?

Same.

If you sort by date added, new items automatically appear at the bottom, not the top.

I tried, but new file is always on the top.

Am I so lame, or its just Lion 10.7.2

Are you in fan mode? Mac 101: Stacks:

Fan

Fan Stacks shows a portion your folder content and arrange the icons so that the closest icon to the Dock is based on the order of the "Sort by" option you have selected.

For example, if you select the "Sort by" option of "Date Added", the Fan Stack will expand showing the icons of the most recently added items closest to the Dock. This is the default setting of your Downloads folder, making it easy to open, copy or move your latest download.

True, in Fan mode it is showing like that, correct.
But what if I don't like Fan mode, maybe because this stack is in the right corner and when I open it, it shows it partly. And also I don't like the view of the Fan mode.
I wanna use that function in List mode.

Any clues?

AFAIK, there is no way to reverse the default sort order in any of the views.

I guess it's Apple's ideology...

If I'll find a hack, i'll post it here.


Thanx for ur time!
