Clarity on arranging slides to the upward/top direction
When in arrange mode it is possible to have a slide "to the top" by clicking the lower "arrow pipe" button (not the arrow left button). Then in the arrange mode you see the slide in the upward direction. But when I go into play mode and navigate to the point of the upward slide it immediately jumps down to the same row. Appears to be either a bug in play mode or in arrange mode. Could be user misunderstanding.

This is a misunderstanding. Vertical stacks of slides will always start from the top/first slide, that part is not configurable. There is navigation logic in place that remembers which vertical slide that was visible when navigating away from a stack so that it doesn’t reset to the first slide again when returning to that same stack. This is always happening behind the scenes but is only plainly visible in the arrange mode.
We are however planning to revisit the entire arrange mode in the future and shifting to a drag and drop interface. We’ll keep this in mind then to try and avoid the confusion.
