Hi everyone,
I just got a new work computer with Yosemite on it and I moved all my files from my old work laptop to it. (This laptop was running Tiger, so you'll understand that I'm not familiar with modern Mac use...) I like to keep my files sorted by Date Modified, and I was able to successfully change the default setting on Finder to do that for all folders.
But when I am in Word or Powerpoint for example and go to File->Open, the only sorting choices are Name, Size, Kind, and Date Added. Since all my files were migrated at once, they all have the same Date Added, and I can't figure out how to change the list of columns to replace Date Added with Date Modified within File->Open dialog boxes. I can see how to use the Arrange By button to sort them into broad chunks like "last 30 days", but I want a strict chronological list like when you sort by Date Modified in Finder. Any advice?
