RE: legend

Surprised this isn't already done, tooltips are really useful but if I can't easily order the results they display they are severely hamstrung

RE: legend

My requirement is to show the tooltips order by volume, not alphabetically. I wouldn't want the legend to change as it helps this to be consistent for the end user. but when I hover over the line chart I would like to see the results listed high to low value

RE: legend

The ability to easily choose the legend order would be very useful. In my example I have stacked column of Orders and Opportunities $ value, I want the (completed) orders on the bottom and (possible) opportunities above... but the default is to use alphabetical order, which draws Opportunities then Orders.

I've found complex articles to do workarounds for this, but it should be a default feature. Changing legend order in Tableau is a simple 'click and drag' deal.
