Buttons and Positions
 
I have created 5 buttons on my session

Heal
Chaos
Sanctuary
Spring
Logs

I want to change the order around. The only way I seem to be able to do it is to delete and re-create the button. Older versions of Zmud, you used to be able to move a button up or down to change the order.

Can it still be done? Is there an easier way to do it?

Click on the tabs in the edit window. No, really, it's ok; nothing's going to break, no vile blue smoke is going to spew from your computer. Anywho, on one of those tabs is a bunch of left/top/width/height and other properties for the button. You should be able to play with those for a few minutes and get a real good grasp on what they do and how they act.

Left-click a button to open the settings window.

In the settings window, make sure the menu View - Sort by... is set to none.

Then just click and drag the buttons in the settings window to the order you want them.

Another, and easier way IMHO, is to export the buttons to a txt file.
Pretend this is what it says when u export:

#BUTTON 1 {Heal} {all the extra stuff that goes into buttons}
#BUTTON 2 {Chaos} {all the extra stuff that goes into buttons}
#BUTTON 3 {Sanctuary} {all the extra stuff that goes into buttons}
#BUTTON 4 {Spring} {all the extra stuff that goes into buttons}
#BUTTON 5 {Logs} {all the extra stuff that goes into buttons}

You want Logs to be button 1 so you change 5 to 1 and if you want heal to be button 3 change that as well..etc..
Just make sure that you don't leave duplicate #'s.

Edit: Or you can do it ParrotSlave's way as well.
Always forget about the sort part since i never use that. Always have it sorted by name.
