Good Morning All, I'm running FME desktop 2015 and have created 10 custom transformers (10 Canvas that i chain together in the main canvas). How do i reorder the canvas or tabs of the work bench . Currently my workbench tab/canvas order Start/Main/CustomerTransformer3/CustomTranformer2/CustomTranformer7 i want it like Start/Main/CustomerTransformer1/CustomTranformer2/CustomTranformer3 etc. Am i missing something simple ? Thanks Steve

Close all the custom transformer tabs and then reopen (edit) them in the order you want.

Has this behaviour changed in recent versions?

I tried this in FME 2017, and I'm not able to manipulate the order of the tabs

I know, an old thread, but this (old) idea maybe deserves your vote
