Hello,

Thank you for taking the time to answer my question.

I'd like to add 3 new studies into my "Studies to Graph" list in "Spreadsheet System For Trading" in the correct order.

For example, currently I have:
1 | ID1
2 | ID2
3 | ID3
4 | ID4
5 | ID5.


When I try to "Add >>" the new studies, even when I have the cursor on ID4, the new study appears as ID6, ie:
1 | ID1
2 | ID2
3 | ID3
4 | ID6
5 | ID7
6 | ID8
7 | ID4
8 | ID5


What I'd like to do is add the 3 new studies in between ID3 and ID4, so that ID4 becomes ID7 and ID5 becomes ID8, ie:
1 | ID1
2 | ID2
3 | ID3
4 | ID4 - new added in
5 | ID5 - new added in
6 | ID6 - new added in
7 | ID7 - previously ID4
8 | ID8 - previously ID5

How can I do this?

Thank you again for your help.

There is not a direct way to do this.

But, to renumber the IDs of studies, you can duplicate the study to a new number, remove the previous version of it, then add/duplicate another study to take the position of the missing number.

For example, from what you gave above. You want ID4 to become ID7, so duplicate the study in ID4, which will be ID5. Add the new study, which will take on ID4, since it is now the lowest number not used. Then continue to do this until you have what you want.
