By default, keyword tags and subcategories are listed in alphabetical order. However, you can change their order by
dragging.

Organizer 9 > Preferences

> Keyword Tags and Albums (Mac OS).

2 In the Enable Manual Sorting Option area, select Manual for Categories, Sub-Categories, and Keyword Tags, and

then click OK.

3 In the Keyword Tags panel, select one or more keyword tags, categories, or subcategories.

4 Drag the selected items to a new location by doing one of the following:

•

To reorder keyword tags within a category or subcategory, drag the tag until you see a gray line, and then release
the mouse button. The tag will appear directly under the gray line.

•

To move a tag to a new category, drag the tag over the category you want to move it to; when the category becomes
highlighted, release the mouse button.

•

To reorder categories or subcategories, drag the category or subcategory until you see a gray line. When you release
the mouse button, the category or subcategory will appear directly under the gray line.

•

To embed categories or subcategories into other categories, drag them to the category or subcategory you want, and
when the destination category or subcategory becomes highlighted, release the mouse button.

Note: If you make a mistake moving a category or subcategory, making it a subcategory or sub-subcategory, select it and
click the New button

and select Edit

from the menu in the Keyword Tags panel. Then specify the correct location

using the Parent Category Or Sub-category menu.

When you move a category or subcategory, the keyword tags it contains move with it.
