And elsewhere, like in the form designer.

This using the up arrow is slow.

If not, why not a down arrow? Moving a category down to places now requires moving the two categories below it up.

Not anything urgent. For when there is nothing else to do. lol lol lol

If you work it out, its the same number of clicks to get a specific arrangement whether the arrow is up or down. I've often pondered the same thing lol

Yes, but only if you do it in the right order. You can move the bottom one up first and then getting it in the right order requires an extra click. The difference would greater the more levels you want to move.

Must. Be. Disciplined.

Drag and drop would still be faster.

Practice with the Towers of Hanoi ;-)
OK - We'll take your suggestion onboard.
Thanks

Yup. Towers of Hanoi if I was playing in a browser and all the logic was server-side and the round trip hop was a couple of thousands of milliseconds in each direction.

No hurry on this, of course, but if I decide to reimport my forums then I have a bunch of re-ordering to do in short order.
