Color order is not appropriate
Hello,
I'm setting up several color depending on the type of task like Task (blue), Defect (orange), then some sub categories for example if a special field is filled up, I set it in Red, the problem is that the color that is taken first is from the top to the bottom. So if I have a task with this special field I will get it Blue whereas I would like Red.
In addition we cannot move the order of the rows that is the main problem, so if I want to get my Red color I need to put it first and then re-create the other color attribute. A bit boring,
Did I miss something or it works like that ?
Thank you,

It proves again it is beneficial to ask a clear question. I suppose you are talking about a plan? So something like this?
I'm afraid what you have found out is just the way it is. If you would like the feature of re-arranging the order of the options, you will need to open a RFE.

Is this attribute based upon an enumeration ? If so, I'd suggest you compare the sort order you get from RTC versus the identifier in the elements of the enumeration. I point this out due to the way some older burndown would rank priority ( low , medium, high ) based on the identifier of the enumeration entry.
To look at the details of the enumeration elements you'd need to look at the project configuration source in the Eclipse UI. Typically, the id is generated thus:
for Enumeration "name" color
Add new value(s) id would be id="color.literal.l1", id="color.literal.l2", etc. Dropping / adding enumeration elements simply increases the number following color.literal.l to the next value. You can rearrange the position of the enumeration elements in the UI to sort them based on the display value ( Red, Green, Cyan, Chartruese, Rojo, Amarillo, Verde,....)
