I have a long (>90 items) list of presets I use to create bookmarks from text. New presets are added at the end of the list, which I can understand.

Re: Creating bookmarks From Page Text doesn't work properly in v10
I installed the just released build 10.1.0.380 and the problem still exists.
My last used build of V9 that did not have this issue was build 9.5.368.0.
Hopefully there will be a solution soon, otherwise iI have to revert back to 368 (I use the create bookmarks from text a lot).
