Maybe we should just remove that feature.

Oh, I *see*! lol
Well, I have fixed it now.
I think the problem is that whilst clicking on the header in the Preset Manager to control the listing order is standard Windows behavior,
I did not expect it to carry over into the other drop-down list in the main screen

Well, there's an advantage to being able to list presets by name--we can name presets with numerals at the start (1 C3 Rock piano, 1 M3 Classical, etc). That way, we can have them all together if we sort by preset name, or have them appear with their cousins if we click on the Instrument header.

I was tidying up my list of Pianoteq presets, and I seem to have messed it up -
now when I click on the preset drop down, there are no dividers any more, splitting it up into different presets for different instruments - the whole thing is just listed alphabetically.

I tried reinstalling Pianoteq but it stayed the same.
What did I do?
