If the question is, ‘how do you customize the ‘Source -> Format’ command to re-order members?’, I don’t think it can be done. To change the order used for the ‘Source -> Sort Members’ command, change the ‘Members Sort Order’ preference: ‘Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Appearance -> Members Sort Order’
