Spells in Spellbook order

Hi, I have a problem with the spellbook. Is there anyway to determine what order the spells will be?

Ive heard somewhere that it depends on which order I made them in WE. But if I add them to the spellbook ingame they lay up in the order I first added them. So no matter If I remove one in the middle and add it again, it will always be placed in the middle.

Anyone knows how to manipulate how they get placed?

To set the order for spells in a pre-made spellbook, it's just the order of the ability list of the book ability.

To set the order for spells added in-game, I've heard you have to load them in the correct order. I have no idea how to do that.

It's how I add them ingame which is troubeling.
I think that "loading them in the correct order" means that the one that should be put first is the first one I should make in WE. Not sure though.

I have 3 abilities. A, B and C.
I wan them in the order A B C.
If I add C first and B second, it will always be C B A no matter how I remove them and add again.
So the only way is to add them A B C which I cant do in the map I'm working on.

I tried that after 1second ingame add the abilities in the correct order and remove them. Still If I add C first after that, C will always be first anyway.

Yeah I saw that post some weeks ago.

So If I just do some thing with the abilities before I use them (Like Disable/Enable at map initialization) in the order I want them, they will be put in that order?

EDIT: Ok I tried it and it didnt work. It doesnt matter what I do, the abilities will always be put in in the order I add them when they really are used (doesnt matter If I add/remove them in the beginning of the map)

EDIT2: I tested to add/remove them at map initialization one more time, and this time it worked! (because when I tried it earlier I only added/removed the spellbook(or was it the normal spell..))

So anyway now it works :D
