think about how it works - the order files are viewed in is set by the viewing program not the originating program - the same set of files can be viewed in many different sort orders - so you have to set it up so one of the available sort orders shows what you want - - for photos often that is exporting photos with a sequential number in the file name so you can view them in an alpha sort
