I do not seem to be able to change the order of the action groups on the actions menu. I searched the registry and the config but see no way to alter it. I have been giving actions names like 1\_xxx and 2\_xxx and this has some effect I think if I create an action from scartch, but if I make a copy of 2\_xxx and name it 01\_xxx, it does not appear at the top of the menu, but instead it appears next to the item I copied from. Does any one know how I can define the order of the action groups that appear on my actions menu ?

Click on the Actions menu\>Actions, and in the window that lists all the actions in the bottom-right are two order buttons: Up/Down. You can also group them into sub-menus by prefixing a name followed by **#**.

Eg: Podcasts#My Action
