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
Would be very useful, please add this feature!
RE: Custom order for legend
I have the same issue. The Power BI Team needs to provide some method to manually select the legend order.
RE: Custom order for legend
Waterfalls only sort from increment to decrement for one measure (Variance to Budget) in my case, when switching to other measures (i.e. Variance to Forecast) the cart does not order by value and instead orders by the item names alphabetically in the x-axis. There is no sorting option to change this
RE: Custom order for legend
Yes custom sort order is absolutely essential! For instance I have categories Research, Analyze, Develop which should display in that order.
RE: Custom order for legend
Strongly agreed.
RE: Custom order for legend
Yes, please. Ordered alphabetically sometimes does not make much sense. It'll be appreciated if the order of the column/row label of table or matrix could be customised as well, just like Excel does.
RE: Custom order for legend
Definitely needed!
RE: Custom order for legend
Yea, for all charts please!
RE: Custom order for legend
Can we get a similar function to Custom Sort Order just like Excel does it. This will fix quite a bit of the sorting issues we currently see in Power BI today.
For Example:
By Day of Week - Sunday to Saturday, Sun to Sat, etc
By Month of Year - January to December, Jan to Dec.
Give them a dialog or other options to control the order manually.
RE: Custom order for legend
Essential when using buckets! Hopefully coming soon :)
