I'm also posting this on the official SDL help forum, but here goes:
I'm using Studio 2019 SR2 - 15.2.4.1693, but the problem was there in Studio 2017, too (I was hoping to get rid of this by updating):
I'm working on a server based project. The client has included three termbases. I want to add one of my local termbases, too, and have it sit on the first place so I can actually add terms to it (the client's termbases are read-only).

However, after moving my local termbase to the first spot in the list, it doesn't stay there. When I open the termbase configuration window, the local termbase is back on the last spot in the list.
As soon as I close the window and try to add a term, I'm told that I'm not permitted to write to the termbase (what's more, the window informing me of this keeps re-opening, so all I can do at this time is close Studio using the task manager).
So practically I can't use local termbases within a server project that already has a server based termbase attached to it.
