I should be able to order the "legend" and the values for each legend category in a stacked bar chart. This is similar to "series order" feature in Excel

Thanks for the feedback. Vote to keep updated on progress for this item.

RE: Custom order for legend


The default legend order for a stacked column chart should simply match the top-to-bottom order of the graph. Having it backward is just silly.

I'm very curious to know if this is somehow difficult to do, programming-wise, or just a lazy oversight. I wonder if the OpenOffice folks have figured it out?

RE: Custom order for legend

Please add - I really though the "new MS" was different, but it seems the voice of the customer remains unheard...
