    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

    RE: Custom order for legend

    Olá.Isso pode ser feito através de uma tabela dimensão com a ordem (ID) de que precisa por relacionamento com a sua tabela de fatos. Não vejo como algo impeditivo.Obviamente que, fazer no visual ajuda e dá velocidade e leveza no arquivo. Mas isso não me impede de classificar minhas legendas da forma como quero para minhas apresentações/análises.

    RE: Custom order for legend

    Absolutely agree, I need the ability to have a custom sort, not just alphabetical.

    Hello just checking in: does this functionality still not exist? Thank you.

    RE: Custom order for legend

    Even just being able to have the legend in the same order as the columns would be a significant improvement. It's just an embarrassing lack of basic, obvious functionality.

    RE: Custom order for legend

    Ordering just by the value doesn't make sense in several cases. Even more currently stacked charts are only ordered by the first Y-value and not the sum of all Y-values. This creates really ugly charts.Please plan this as soon as possible. Thank you in advanced.
