Sorting portrait & landscape images
Is there an easy way to sort into portrait & landscape images held in a Windows 11 Pictures folder.

How about this idea for doing this on Win 10:

Re: Sorting portrait & landscape images
There is no option to sort by orientation, but if all the pictures are the same size, say 4000x3000 (landscape) or 3000x4000 (portrait), you can sort by dimension: select Sort > More > Dimensions.
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Re: Sorting portrait & landscape images
Thanks for these clues ... I will have a study.
Most of my images for resize to a print shop are 3:4 or 4:3 so I guess I can sort these easily. The remaining images of various dimensions from other sources can be manually sorted or, if suitable, cropped to my preferred sizing.

Re: Sorting portrait & landscape images
Neither really solves this 'sort' need ... dimensions picks kb size.
Looks like the 'hard way'
Thanks anyway

Re: Sorting portrait & landscape images
Are you sure? I just tried Sort > More > Dimensions and it sorted all narrow (portrait) images before the wide (landscape) images, regardless of file size.
And if I select Descending instead of Ascending, the landscape images before the portrait images.

Re: Sorting portrait & landscape images
You are so correct, Hans.
I have tried again and this time I had the same result as you. Excellent solution for the majority of images before I send online for printing at a specific maximum size of 'long side'. Using Batch Processing I can process separately the portrait/landscape images with (say) a long side of 13cm. Typically, my lady, has batches of 200 - 500 images at one time and manual sorting is a 'pain'.
I am overjoyed at this easy solution which I should have thought of before
