But I can't select "Sort by created", it was the most needed for me.
[EDIT]The "Sort by My Order" option ports my wish! It sorts notes by creating date!

I guess it would not be that difficult to do technically as there already exist the bookmarks/speed dial synchronization.

THANK YOU X1000. I was going crazy when opera sorted my notes in alphabetical order.

The view icon is no longer available, I'm using Opera 9.52.
Yes I tried the typical things as resetting the panel, etc.

I just upgraded to 9.62 and the I have no ability to drag and drop that view icon anywhere. I'm also driven to distraction by the automatic note sorting. Is there anyway to turn it OFF?

> Did you follow instructions?
Yes, the ones at the top of this page. When I selected the VIEW icon and tried to move it I got a little circle with a diagonal line through it - the symbol that means "you can't drop this icon where you are currently holding it".
I'm using Win98, btw.
Is there an INI file or something I can just edit?
Also, the tip itself is clever and useful - but how is it possible for a regular user of Opera to figure something like that out? I don't think that's in any help file, is it?

Ahhh. I needed to drop in the TOP panel - above the notes. Thanks, it works now.

BPM has a great little button to do a sort in one click here: http://my.opera.com/bpm/blog/buttons
It's still a nasty bug. It would be OK if it kept its sorting, like bookmarks, instead of changing back to alphabetical on every restart.

How about that this becomes a default in a future version od Opera?

It is still available, after the customize and bookmark manager windows are opened, drag and drop the "view" button from bookmark manager to the notes toolbar and there you have it!
