Hi,
When I do "reorder dimensions" last dimension contains string element, generates an error "Dimension Re-Order Failed". You do "reorder dimensions" last Dimension?
Thanks.

I do however recollect being able to add a string element to the last dimension after doing the reorder - and everything worked fine as far as I recall.
Not that I'm advocating it mind. It's just that sometimes documentation fails to tell the full story. It might be worth experimenting.
