About cast member order in Cast List view
In List view, the cast member order doesn't always correspond to the member's physical location in the cast.
When you work in List view, keep the following in mind:
• In List view, Director places new cast members at the end of the list, and the cast member number becomes the
first available number after the current selection.
•
You can use Thumbnail view to reorder (and renumber) cast members by dragging them to different locations
in the window. You can't reorder cast members by dragging in List view.
