A virtually identical question was asked a few days ago, although it seems to have been deleted, along with the answers.  From memory:

  • You have too many fields, it's a bad config
  • The list is scrollable, although it does only go to 25 (25 status fields - broken)
  • Every field you add to the navigator shortens the list, so keep adding them until the status you need appears, then remove the extra ones
  • Take note of your current columns, then use "reset to default".  Status will now be included, so you can then re-add the others you want
