Macro tab order

The macro window contains the following fields: 1.Triggers, 2.Actions, 3.Conditions. In my opinion, their logical order should be changed as follows: 1. Triggers, 2. Conditions, 3. Actions. Thank you!

The dev could make an option to change the order but I have never seen someone talk about changing this ever. I mean, aren't actions more important than constraints ?

I didn't mean the importance, but the sequence of actions: first the trigger fires, then the condition is checked, and then the actions are executed.

OK I understand your point, but I believe this was made for editing purposes. I'm not sure @MacroDroidDev would implement this if only 10 users or so would like this.

In addition, as general constraints (these related to the whole macro, not to a specific action) are not used as often as triggers or actions (which are mandatory), it makes macros more easily readable on small screens such as mobile phones without taking up space in the middle of the screen, rather than at the bottom.

I understand your conservative.
However, I, a young user, was confused by the illogical construction of "then... if...". I'm used to this "if... then...".
