FEATURE REQUEST - Button for a preset

I have only just started using FileBot and love it.
A little thing I would like is a button, under the Match and Rename buttons, which could be allocated to one preset.
I tend to use the same preset every time.

You can use 1..9 on your keyboard or numpad to call Presets quickly.

How do you assign a number to a preset. Ther doesn't seem to be a field in Edit Presets?

You cannot. The #1 key calls the #1 preset, the #2 key the #2 preset, and so on.

How do you number the presets? If I want to use the 4th preset down in the list I have to press 6.

Presets are numbered top to bottom. Pressing 1 should call the first Preset on the top of the list.

EDIT:

What platform are you using? It seems the order is not guaranteed on some platforms, so it seems the order is effectively random for those users. This is a bug.

I am on Windows 10. If the order of selection cannot be guarenteed perhaps my first request for at least one programable button
would solve the problem.

The order bug will be fixed with the next release.

Programmable top-level buttons are not planned because it would look ugly. Custom buttons has been suggested in the past, and has lead to the current Presets feature as a better solution.
