Hi Laure,

data structures are displayed according to their position in the list, 
meaning that objects with a higher index will be shown on top of objects 
with a lower index.

There is, however, a bug/inconsistency:

If you move (not only click) a scalar, it will always show on top of any 
other scalar. If you close and open the window, the original order is 
restored.
