Changing order of Fortiswitch in GUI

I recently added a switch later in the stack, and wanted to make sure the switches were numbered the same as the physical order in the rack. I found no way to do this in the GUI – probably is, but the CLI method works great.

config switch-controller managed-switch

(managed-switch) #
(managed-switch) # move ?
*switch-id Managed-switch name.
Switch1
Switch3
Switch4
Switch5
Switch6

Switch2

(managed-switch) # move Switch2 before Switch3

(managed-switch) #end

And now in the GUI we can see the below:
