Let's get this out of the way first. I'm anal.

Anyway, in El Cap I had a bunch of folders tagged by colour in icon view, and when I auto-arranged them (arrange by none, snap to grid are my defaults) they would sort by tag colour A-Z, so all the blue tagged folders 'B' would appear above the red tagged folders 'R". I didn't do anything special to achieve this, it was just what happened. Colours were prioritised this way. Untagged folders would appear right at the top. I liked this. It made me calm.

Now in Sierra, the reverse happens. They sort Z-A i.e. with Red tagged appearing above Blue tagged, appearing above untagged. This makes me unhappy. More unhappy than it should.

I've tried other sort options to see if I can produce an A-Z sort of tag colours but so far without success.

Help me before I put my fist through the screen, or turn my monitor upside down.
