Hi all
I want to change the order of the three scales that appear in the C.Minor Palette
The default order is: 1*natural-minor 2* harmonic-minor 3* melodic-minor
I want to change the order : 1*natural-minor 2* melodic-minor 3* harmonic-minor to give more priority to the melodic-minor than harmonic-minor and is impossible,i press the arrows located to the right of the scale and always when natural-minor is on the top the following in order are harmonic-minor and melodic-minor
I started also from scratch by double-click on the catalog of chord and scales and is impossible

Hi Supertonic
Yes,i was using the small arrows buttons (Click to make this the reference scale)
I must be stupid because with the default minor palette i only can get these combinations:
1* natural-minor
2* harmonic-minor
3* melodic-minor
-----------------
1* melodic-minor
2* natural-minor
3* harmonic-minor
----------------
1* harmonic-minor
2* melodic-minor
3* natural-minor
---------------
Another combinations are impossible to get them as i like them:
1* natural-minor
2* melodic-minor
3* harmonic-minor
----------------
1* melodic-minor
2* harmonic-minor
3* natural-minor
---------------
1* harmonic-minor
2* natural-minor
3* melodic-minor
If you can get these please let me know how?
With the arrow buttons you can transform one scale into reference scale but not choose the order of the rest of the two scales ,see my gift example
I think it would be more simple to can select the scale and drag and drop it to the desired order

Only the reference scale influences scale selection. The ordering of all extra scales do not make a difference. They are sorted automatically by interval structure to maintain the layout of the chord columns best.

Hi Shivaloca
you can drag&drop scales
- from one palette to th other
you can get a new scale
- choosing it
- clicking into a horizontal scale in the catalog
you can delete a scale
- using ctrl-click
and you can turn a scale into your mean scale by clicking into the little arrow, as supertonic mentioned before -- but watch out, this feature is still a little buggy ;-) workaround: make the palette-window bigger.
and, yes, i often like use two or three little palettes rather than one big one (they may have different root notes). but maybe this depends on the situation and personal preferences … ;-)
have fun:

* Hi Supertonic
Thanks to your clarification:
The ordering of all extra scales do not make a difference
I thought it was influential order of the remaining scales
* Hi Minkepatt
A lot of thanks to your various advices and to your time to do the jpg examples,you are great :D

I am on the catalog of chords and scales and in the tab Vertical Scale
I press double click over the Dorian scale (because i want to open it as a horizontal scale in a palette)
Then opens a palette with dorian.h as horizontal scale,my question is:
What is best: Example dorian
A- catalog of chords and scales-tab vertical scale-double click over dorian scale,opens as horizontal scale in a palette
B- catalog of chords and scales-tab horizontal scale-item-New or New Clone and create a dorian horizontal scale and double click,opens in a palette
C- The resulted is the same to get dorian scale as horizontal scale in a palette (A and B)
