Silly questions... purely aesthetic... given the picture above. How do you move the values up/down? For example, State belongs grouped with Height/Width/Top/Left (Window Position + state).
Not the only project where I later add stuff and it slowly gets out of order. Can delete/re-add, but that gets tedious and error prone. Can just leave it as is, but it's a minor annoyance.
Am I totally not seeting the setting somewhere to move the stuff around, because I've looked and I just don't see it.

Settings. settings is located in the My Project folder for Visual Basic projects and in the Properties folder for Visual C# projects.
User-scope settings are stored in the user's appdata folder. Application-scope settings are stored in C:\Users\My Name\AppData\Local\My_Company\. If your settings file doesn't contain any Application-scope settings, you won't have a company folder.
config file is stored in the user's Documents and Settings folder. In a ClickOnce application, <app>.exe. config lives in the application directory inside of the ClickOnce application cache, and user. config lives in the ClickOnce data directory for that application.
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\... VS2017 can also be found in 'Documents': %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Visual Studio 2017 .
Close the solution. Open the project's Properties\Settings.settings file and re-arrange the <Setting> items. You'll get them back listed in the Settings Designer in the order in which they are listed in that file.

As the other answers indicate you need to edit the sequence of the entries in the Properties\Settings.settings file. You do not need to close VS, just close the Properties tab if it is open.
Also this will not re-arrange the XML entries in you .config file. For that you need to re-arrange the entries in your app.config file, that is created in your root project folder.
Both files are simple XML based files.
