How do I change the Local Data Filter conditional order within Graph Builder

Good day: I'll see if I can clearly state my question.  I have a plot created via Graph Builder in JMP v 14.1.  I've added a Local Data Filter (with 9 variables) so I can visualize certain subset(s) of the data.  I've chosen the "conditional" option in the Local data Filter as well.  So far, so good.  But, I'm struggling to see how the conditional ordering can be changed.  I see that I can re-order the list of filter variables (drag-n-drop), but that has little to no affect on the ordering of how the conditioning is carried out.  There is a number in brackets (e.g., [3] ) proceeding each Local data Filter variable to show the conditioning order.  I see no way to change these in any kind of purposeful way.  For example, no matter how they are ordered in the list, the variable with "[4]" in front of it must be chosen before the variable that has "[7]" in front of it or else the conditioning doesn't work as it should. For ease of use, I would like to match the variable conditioning order to the variable order as listed. How can I make this happen? As far as I can tell, there is nothing in the script that can I can change to influence Conditioning Order. And, I've tried starting from scratch and adding variables to the Local Data Filter in my desired conditioning order, only to find that the conditioning order changes somewhere along the way...and I've no clue how that happens! 

 

Thanks Folks

Re: How do I change the Local Data Filter conditional order within Graph Builder

Makes more sense if :sex is replaced with a :label column.
The idea: 
pre-define the order of the conditional data filter (use :label as pre-selection and let it determine which entries show up in the :name filter; like the hierarchical Filter in a dashboard),
without selecting anything in local data filter:

The workaround: set some filter and clear the selection 

View more...
dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt << Select Rows( [11, 19, 26, 29] ) << Name Selection in Column(
	Column Name( "Label" ),
	Selected( "interesting subset" )
) << clear select;
gb = dt << Graph Builder(
	Size( 535, 638 ),
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	Variables( X( :weight ), Y( :height ) ),
	Elements( Points( X, Y, Legend( 31 ) ), Smoother( X, Y, Legend( 32 ) ) )

);


ldf = gb << Local Data Filter(
	Conditional,
	Add Filter(
		columns( :Label, :name ),
		Where( :Label = "interesting subset" ),
		Where( :name == "ALFRED" ),

	)
);
ldf << (Filter Column( :Label )<< clear selection);
