Dear ImageJ users,

I'm trying import->Image sequence in a directory, which contains 44 files. File names are:

01_s1_t1.tif, ..., 01_s1_t11.tif
01_s2_t1.tif, ..., 01_s2_t11.tif
02_s1_t1.tif, ..., 02_s1_t11.tif
02_s2_t1.tif, ..., 02_s2_t11.tif

To import all the files containing "s1", I enter "s1" in the field "File name contains:" and check "Sort names numerically". But I find that the files ending with "t10.tif" and "t11.tif" do not appear after "t9.tif", rather they appear at the end of the stack. Is this a bug? Is there a better way to import these files?

I'm running ImageJ 1.46b5 on a Windows 7 machine.
