You can change the button layout in your version of Bob's Calculator using the 'Edit button layout' menu command. The following screen will be displayed, although, upon entering this mode initially, the display area will be mostly blank:

edit layout

When this screen is displayed you can drag/drop buttons from one place to another, and you can also tap buttons to swap them between the button location and the edit area.  When a button has been moved to the top its previous location is blank.  Note that you have to put the button back in its original location for the change to take effect. To swap two buttons using taps, first tap the initial button to transfer it to the top, then tap the destination button, and that button will swap with the button at the top.  Then tap the old location again, and the two buttons will have swapped locations.

To assign a new operation or function for a button, move it to the top and select either the "Op" or "Fn" button to edit that part of the button a screen similar to the program edit screen will be presented, where you can select the funcion.  Note that any user-created programs will show up in the leftmost list as a family called "User programs".

When moving buttons around, take note that you can move BOTH the operation and fn, or just one of them.  This is controlled using the popup list at the top right.

You will note that the Enter (or "=") button cannot be put just anywhere on the screen, because is cannot span across the top rows of buttons, and it may not extend past the bottom of the screen.
