Is this possible to achieve somehow?

Thank you.")* The default value of a characteristic can be selected in the Characteristics area of each product. The ordering of the values of a characteristic is done automatically either alphabetically or based on the order you added the values in the characteristic. You can select one mode of the other with the corresponding option of the Display tab of the configuration called "Characteristics values ordering". We have on the todo list the possibility to set an ordering for each value of a characteristic but that's not yet possible.
