Reorder / Rearrange Video and Audio Tracks

It would be amazing to simply grab a track and move it up or down in the order of the sequence. This was something I could do easily back when I used Vegas Pro. Occasionally, I have big, complex sequences and would like to reorder the tracks for organization purposes or for shipping off to audio master. Thanks!

I have a suggestion for all in this thread. Let's use social media to get the Adobe folks to fix this problem. I'm pretty sure Adobe has people who monitor their social media accounts. It's been several years since this thread started and so many of us have been requesting it... all to no avail. Using social media just may light a fire under their feet to have them take care of this.
So, for those who use twitter, start tweeting.(@Adobe). Post on their Facebook page.

Just Copy and paste this page to their social media accounts.

I often create pieces that grow in ways I cannot fully predict at the outset, so will be very glad when this feature makes its way into PP.

I do a lot of post-editing of Zoom files from meetings with 20+ attendees. Zoom now provides ISO Audio (one track per attendee), and I drag them over to a separate sequence, then drag that sequence over to the main video sequence. Since the audio tracks are in order of "entry into the meeting" time, I want to be able to drag the main speakers to the top. I KNOW it's possible to "add track", "drag track", "delete empty track"... but what a pain! Please... SOME command or keystroke combination for "drag this track in between two other tracks".

In light of this and so many other unaddressed issues, I made the switch to Resolve over 2 years ago and have never looked back. It's been a boon for my sanity as an editor not to have to grapple with Premiere's sloppy engineering on a daily basis. I'm producing creative training content that includes other Adobe software such as Photoshop and After Effects, but Premiere takes the cake as the most annoying NLE on the market. If someone asks about Premiere, I tell them to avoid it like the plague. Judging by Adobe's falling stock price, it's clear they've rested on their laurels for far too long. Perhaps it would be a good choice of company direction to listen to the people who actually pay for their software?

Adobe is turning into Apple and they do what they want, not what the customer wants. It makes no sense for them to do this, even if there's 2000 people begging them to do it. Too much work and not needed, since they've never experienced what some of us who have via Vegas Pro. I'm looking into alternatives as well from Black Magic.
