Can you change the order of sources in the MS Word "Z" pane?

Can you change the order of the sources in the MS Word "Z" pane? This can be done easily with the up- and down- arrows in the classic view, but it doesn't seem possible in the "Z" pane.

    Nobody?

    I looked at this a few days ago out of curiousity. There is some code in there for drag-and-drop, but it is either unrelated to the reordering of items or it is a work in progress. Reordering items is not currently possible in the Z input widget.

    Thanks for the confirmation.

    (This worked originally, but was broken by a Firefox update a while back.)

    When an item has been fully deleted or is unavailable to the current user of a document, its embedded metadata shows in the Z menu, and editing locators and affixes works. The missing item does not show in the Classic View, though, and can't be edited there, so there is currently no way to control its position in a multiple citation.

    It looks like it would be tough to enable the Classic View for missing items, but if reordering can be fixed in the Z menu there might not be much demand for it.
