How do I re-order the listing of my Bridge Officers?

Anyways, I've been playing the game for about a week now and I find it quite enjoyable.
However, one issue I have had is that I seem to be unable to re-order my BO's in the list on the left of the status/skill window. Currently I have three in alphabetical order, and another three in random order. Is there anyway to change the order they are listed in so as I can group my engineer/science/tactical BO's together.

Thanks in advance for any help.

    Now that you mention it, I don't recall seeing a method either. And it would be very handy to change the orfer (by type for me ... Engineers together, etc.).

    Hmmmm ....

    Maybe that can be on one of the future patches...I'm sure you're not the only one wondering.

    You can reorder BOs by name. I had a couple that I renamed and when i renamed one from Thosaln to David he moved to the top of the list. It is alphabetical.

    Not a bad idea. To bad is to expensive to rename them again. I keep that in mind for my next set of crew.

    Actually, renaming them doesn't seem to do the trick. Or at least not for me. The first three BO's I got a hold of displayed in alphabetical order (and are still at the top of my list). The next three are in the order I got them and changing their names doesn't fix things (though I can't change their short names again). It's just a bit annoying as now my officers are in no meaningful order.

    I was thinking the same thing last night.

    It would be nice to sort any way we choose, I like to rotate away team gear by my priority (hand me downs) and if they were listed in that order it would be much smoother.

    Hmm, at first I was gonna suggest it was sorted in order of joining but thats not right either. I'll log in shortly and double check but I have a sudden inspiriational thought that it is listed in order of the following :

    Bridge Station Officers
    - Engineering
    - Science
    - Tactical
    Away Team
    - Engineering
    - Science
    - Tactical
    Others
    - Engineering
    - Science
    - Tactical

    But yeah, I don't recall ever seeing a way to do re-sort them, but I have seen them change order before, probably based on my sorting out bridge station duty officers on a new ship.

    My first three BO's (which are in alphabetical order) are science, engineer and tactical (in that order). I think it uses different methods at different times for different portions of the BO's. I'm not sure.
