Steps to reproduce:

I made tags in a certain order, and would like to reorder them.

Actual results:

Tags cannot be reorderd, only edited.

Expected results:

It would be nice to be able to reorder tags to see them in a desired order.

Can't they be deleted and recreated in the desired order?

They can, but it's a hassle to delete 5 or more tags just to recreate them again in a different order. Both the name and colour has to be filled in again for each of them. It's an idea for an improvement.

A simple button to order a tag up or down the list could be more convenient.

Kind regards.

Got ya!

I use the defaults, but for the 5 I see in your screen shot, I would note the order, names and colors on a sheet of paper, or in a text file and then Delete and Add in the order I want.

Keeps me from having to test things in future versions and reporting bugs when they break.

Thank you for your reply! Clear! I'll do that then.
Kind regards.
