My list of games is not sorted correctly by title

I have the problem in launchbox and bigbox, do you know how I can fix it?

A picture is worth a thousand words.

That is correct, the leading article like "The" and "A" are ignored when sorting.

If for some reason you DON'T want you titles sorted that way (ignoring leading articles) you can set that titles Sort Title to match it's title and it will sort the way you are wanting.

How do you do this I can't seem to figure it out, sorry complete newbie

Select the game, press Ctrl+E on your keyboard. In the Edit window that appears copy the title from the upper most control on the right hand side. Then on the left hand list of pages find "Sort Title" and click it. In the new page that appears paste the value into the only control on that page. Press OK on the window to close it and save the changes.

Anyway we could automate this option? Plex had the same problem at one point but that can be changed. Going game by game and checking if you want to ignore 'the' 'an' is tedious. Would greatly appreciate it
