How to arrange Elevations?

Hi,

we created many elevations/with groups. I noticed that archicad auto arrange it by alphabet however  what I need is to Custom arrange it (based on the how the home flows). But it does not let me do it in "traditional" way by moving like I would do with Layouts... How do you arrange your elevations? 

 

 

EDIT: There is "some form" or arrangement but clumsy. not sure if its bug or if its intended this way....  but when I would slide certain group up or whenever I want, but it would add it on the bottom under everything looking like a new subset.So my question is still related to custom arrangement of Interior elevations. is this possible or like "feature" wish?:D

Hello! Anyone who can help me to better organize interior elevations? Archicad 28, still no upgrades…

We typically create a master prototype home model file with multiple elevations markers organized by sub-model name and orientation.  The saved views are saved into elevation specific sub-folders by type which helps with the organization. I hope that helps.

 Hi!!! :)) I am not following. Do you mind sharing printscreen? 

 

I wanted to accomplish organizing elevations in the interior elevation tool  (our elevations are named by room name) where I work with them in detail. (I don't mean views in layouts). If you could share your printscreen to understand better, I would appreciate it.
