When you are surprised, I think that it is always a good idea to go back and check for errors on my part . This I have now done, and can definitely confirm that the 'natural' format does not work on my system, but the 'name reversed' format, from ComposerSort, does work.

Thank you for this information

The new feature for indexTags customization (Label, Artist, etc.) could search folders underneath an indexTags subfolder (for example, indexArtwork/indexTags/Label/BIS.jpg). This would enable the user to create other other folders under the indexArtwork folder to organise their artwork files.

So, in my use case, I would use the folder Path indexArtwork/indexTags/ComposerSort. Is that correct? I know I could try it myself, but I am conscious that you are doing investigations of your own, which may affect things.

Many thanks, as ever, for your help on this.
