RE: node number in swc File
The first part of the reversed node number is correct, V3D does change the node number from time to time when one is editing the neuron. But the overall topology remain unchanged.

I am not sure second part of the question. Can you have an example?

It seems the order of node number within each segment is reversed when I either "decompose to simple neuron-segments" or "edit this neuron". For example, going from the root to the terminals (centrifugally) the node number should increase (segment 1: -1<1<2<3<4; segment 2: 4<5<6; segment 3: 4<7<8). However after I decompose (which I assume is part of the edit function) and rejoin the segments, it becomes (segment 1: -1<4<3<2<1; segment 2: 1<6<5; segment 3: 1<8<7).

Also the rejoin function is much slower (>10 times) than the decompose function. Is this related to the reverse ordering of the node numbers?
