What do you mean by first...? Before it starts?
Use the setting when adding torrent to show torrent content and some options, and likely bring dialog to front too, for convenience.
If it's a magnet link, should still work but it requires a short amount of time to contact a peer and look up the info for it. However doesn't work if it can't find anyone. (one downside to magnet links)

Or... now that I typed all that, do you mean when you look at the Content tab you want folders to show first? This already does for me, I have it set to sort by Name (pointing down) that is all.

I guess my "not so subtle" hint at suggesting you "explain what you mean" fell on stony ground then.

General note for any one and everyone;

If you want good answers, you need to explain your question in a clear and concise way so what you are actually asking is unambiguous. If your question is vague, you WILL get the forum smartarse (That'll be me then) posting an equally vague reply and then we (the forum members who can be bothered) will have to go through a series of questions and answers  to find out what you actually want to know, leading to frustration on both sides of the forum.

Hi Loki

Yes, under the Content tab, I'd like to list the folders first. I have mine sorted alphabetically but the folders are listed among the files.

Currently not possible.
