Cannot Re-arrange Color Swatches ( Drag to change order or add to group )

I am so frustrated! Why can't I re-order my color swatches or drag them into the color groups?  Please Adobe fix this problem. Why have swatch groups if you can't organize them?

I am using windows 11, latest version of Indesign.

 

If anyone knows how to fix this, please share with me.

Hi Chris:

 

It sounds like you know how to do this, but it isn't working on your system anymore? If that's the case, try rebuilding cache/preferences—that takes care of the erratic behavior that we sometime experience in InDesign.

If I'm mistaken and this is a question of not understanding how to do it:

Welcome to the forum.

You can reorder the swatches in the swatches panel (and name them and put selected ones grouped in a folder) and you can add your swatches to your CC Library.
