Hi, I would like to be able to manually move the track order, then apply the auto numbering. Is there a way to do this? Thanks C ---

Right right on the top of any column _\>customize columns_ or at the _menu\>edit\>customize columns_ and do as attached and put '%discnumber%%track%'. This ensures disks are sorted first then tracks. You could also put %album% before %discnumber% to ensure better sorting. Since I only work with only a handful of files at a time this is not needed so much. Just wondering are you aware of the Web Source Scripts on here. [/c/web-sources-scripts](https://community.mp3tag.de/c/web-sources-scripts) **EDIT:** Sorry misunderstood the question!!

> [@dano](#): > > Hold down ALT key then drag the files. Ur use ALT+Up/Down Maybe it's in the docs somewhere but this was also (most welcome) news to me. Suggestion: perhaps an indicator of this functionality could be pointed to in the UI for the Auto-numbering wizard? ---
