Hi @Tom_Huntford , thanks for adding this tip which will be helpful to many.

Just one clarification - the order of the columns in a List view can be managed by clicking and dragging the fields listed within the ‘Hide’ button. Or simply dragging the headers of columns left/right.

The order of fields within the Customize, which you describe, defines the order that the fields appear in the task details panel’s table (once you open the task).

The final tip is to make sure you click on the ‘Save view’ button in the top right corner to retain your revised layout/changes whenever you visit the project again.

Also note that there may be an A/B test currently in progress where the “Hide” button is called “Options”. If you do happen to see an “Options” button, it’s the above-discussed “Hide” button.
