Hello @SWS-AlexVletsas

Are you talking about these 3 buttons in the deprecated version? (Dup., /\ and \/)

If so, they have their equivalent in the V2 starting from SU11:

The arrows don't change the sequence, they allow you to select previous/next item in the list.

Sylvain

Yes, these are the icons. I can't see them (SU10, AEv2). Also, having the ability to change the sequence of the lights from within the editor can be very helpful as we can have all the panel lights together (i.e. 40-49 instead of 41, 45-48 and 52-54) without having to edit the .cfg files.

As I said, icons are coming with SU11.

I'll forward the request for a reorder feature in this panel.

Edit: My bad @SWS-AlexVletsas Arrows are reordering the lights. I was mistaken by the fact the displayed name doesn't change. We'll change this and display the type of light so that's a bit more readable.

Regards,
Sylvain
