I need to send all photos in one project from Aperture by e-mail arranged by version name. That is, all photos in the letter must be ordered by version name. When i use Share button Aperture generates an e-mail where the photos are mixed.
Does anyone know how to do it?
Aperture 3, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)
I cannot replicate the issue. Are version names and filenames the same?
Ernie
Yes, version names and filenames are the same.
I want to show photos to a recipient from the beginning to the end. He does not know what the first picture, which second, and so on
As tested here, I cannot replicate the issue. The filename will determine, even to the point of overriding any other sort, such as rating.
Not sure how to test to see what may be happening to you?
Ernie
Ho to simulate this situation
1. There is a project. There are many photos in the project sorted by the vertion name (or filename).
2. Select all photos in the project by pressing cmd+A.
2. Push the button "Share" in the Toolbar and select "Email".
3. Aperture will make new e-mail with many photos inside the letter. These photos will not be sorted by the version names. they will be mixed. and there is no possibility to arrange them manually in the letter
That is precisely the situation I tested with, and did not experience the mixing, except the projects I tested with have far too many photos to add to one email. I will look for another of my projects with fewer images to test with where I can select all the photos.
Ernie Addendum: just found and tested with a Project with 11 photos. Did a Select All, and then Share to Email, and the images contained in the email composition were exactly in same order as Version Name.

A few things to try/consider:
HTH.
--Kirby.
unfortunately the photos mix in the body of the email message... 😠
probably my Aperture needs some additional adjustments...
You can "select all" in the body of the email message and "{right-click}➞View as Icon". This makes seeing the filenames easier, and makes it easier to rearrange the files.
Yes! when i do this i can see the filenames mixture: 3,5,8,1,2,6, etc 😠😠 instead of 1,2,3,4,5...
yes, i know it. but it's less convenient for me
But in iPhoto all works correctly...
How it works in Aperture.
Photos in the project.
Photos in the bode of the e-mail message
The problem, it would seem from my observation, is that numbers smaller than 10 will not sort correctly without having a zero in front of the single digit. As in 1984-10 01, and not 1984-10 1.
Ernie
Yes i experimented a bit. Aperture sorts the photos correctly if they have zero in front of index. But if index more than than 9 and has zero in front of it (for example 010, 011, 012 etc) the photos will be mixed in a latter again.
i suppose it is a bug?
I do not see it as a bug, and would like to see similar screenshots to before of this latest mix up. For an index more than 9, but less than 100, the correct form would be 01 through 09, followed by 10 through 99. Your three digit example would seem to confuse this?
Ernie
ок
the project
the letter, begining
The letter, the end
OK, your screenshots verify that the problem is of your own creation. Adding the zero, but not keeping a consistent number of digits (even when leading with 0) in the index did nothing to change the original example.
The first index should have been 01. The tenth one should have been 10, and so forth. If you were to want to use 3 digits, the first index would be 001, and the tenth would be 010.
There is no problem in either Aperture nor Mail with what you have experienced -- merely your misunderstanding of using index numbers in any computer data base.
Ernie
ОК. get it. In this case, there is another problem (at least for me). How can i assign numerical values to photos in above format in batch mode (01,02, ...,09, 10,11 ... or 001,002 ...) ? If i use Index (batch parameter) Aperture will name photos from 1 to 11 (for example). I can insert zero before Index, then i get 01,02,...,09,010,011. I can get required names if i use Counter. But after each naming procedure i need to edit batch parameters to zero Counter
