I would LOVE to be able to move the panels in Lightroom in the order I use them most!

Camera calibration should be at the top. That alone should be enough to let us sort the panels the way we want. Don't even need left/right. Just up and down on the right panel would be good

Happened to come across this thread coincidentally. Nevertheless it struck me to see, that some 7 (!) years ago somebody brought in this idea and obviosuly nothing happened.
If I look back on the last 2 years only, I must conclude, apart from from camera updates and bug fixes Lr (and Ps as well) didn't develop whatsoever. What about the promise Adobe made back in 2013 that CC customers would be offered "continous development"??
To me it seems Adobe has eliminated the R&D department for Lr and Ps completely ...
Not even customer wishes regarding the UI are looked after anymore like:
- undockable windows:
- reordering panels (this idea);
- color adjustments with the local adjustment tools;
- scalable UI graphics and fonts;
- and so on ...
Any other software supplier is offering that kind of tools for a fair one time price. Adobe just seems to collect month after month serving their share holders without offering anything that would even make a one time upgrade licence worth the money. No wonder a lot of my colleagues are still working with CS6. Although I am sure you will find a way to force them into subscription over time as well.
This is no way to get your customers satisfied!
I was one of the first to join CC looking forward to years of being the happy user I was ever before. But now the only thing we get is updates with bug fixes, bringing in new bugs again, forcing us to spend a lot of time not being able to do our core business.
And Lightroom getting slower and slower in the meanwhile. I still use it, being familiar with it so much, but my customer satisfaction is rapidly decreasing.

This would be great. I just wish I could move the panel from the right side of my screen to the left hand side because I"m a lefty and it would make my work flow so much nicer...

Give the user the ability to rearrange the work flow top to bottom particularly in the Develop module

And also activate Solo Mode.  Only one tool box is open at a time, so that the remaining tool boxes are much closer.

You can switch off the others which do not use so often with a right click on the tool boxes and switch on again when you need them.
