Enable the stacked bar chart to be sorted by the total value instead of just by one of the individual measure used.

RE: Stacked bar chart total sort

It is easily doable in Tableau but not in PowerBI :|

RE: Stacked bar chart total sort

Voting for this, maintaining an offline sorting just too much to work on. would appreciate if we can make it dynamically

RE: Stacked bar chart total sort

You can do this by adding the total value to the tool tips and sorting by that value

RE: Stacked bar chart total sort

Seriously needed. Even if we can't select the sort order, at least put the biggest values on top. The stacked bar charts are a mess.

RE: Stacked bar chart total sort

A line and stacked column chart can be sorted by the line value, but there is no equivalent sort for a stacked bar chart........
Would be great if you could add your total value to the bar chart, sort by that and then perhaps hide the total value from the visual
