Moving status codes up

I just created a new status code and would like it to be the first in the drop down menu. I can see up and down arrows to the right of the list for each item, but I can't seem to use them of OS X Snow Leopard Firefox...

Any clues?
Thanks
Alex

    Alex, I found the problem, your scope field on that status code had an
    extra space in it, so it was "shot.status " instead of "shot.status".
    I know, its a little touchy. This page is something I want to redo.

    Anyway, I fixed that and put your new code near the top.

    Although, its a curious code -- aren't all shots in ShotRunner
    FXShots? And, what will you do when you want to advance the status to
    Comping, etc.? Maybe you want a status code for "NOT an FxShot?" --
    sort of like the "Dropped" code -- then you could leave the 'active'
    tag off an not have it included in the active shot counts?

    Cheers,
    Cameron

    Thanks Cameron

    Well, in the case of this project, I need to break up a sequence into
    all of its parts, then isolate the FX shots. The reason why they all
    need to be there is that the project is very flexible at this point
    and some shots can be swapped around at the compositing stage. So I
    need the FX team to have an eye on all available shots. But their
    main concern is of course the ones labelled as FX shots.
    I think your approach is probably better though, make shots that are
    not FX shots inactive
