How do I change the display order in the pipeline browser? Specifically, I want the three datasets displayed in the order of 1, 2, and 3. I may have more datasets to display. By reordering them, I can avoid some confusion.

I just found this was asked in an earlier post: [Order of objects in pipeline browser](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/order-of-objects-in-pipeline-browser/7741).

It seems the request has not been implemented.

If managing the visual appearance of the pipeline matters to you, you can also try the `NodeEditor` plugin. It allows to manipulate a 2D chart of the pipeline.
