Custom Sort - Time

Hello,

 

I created a custom sort order for times of the day: from 12 AM - 11PM.

 

The sort order appears correct in my table view, but when I try to visualize on a matrix chart, the sequence is out of order. I already selected the hour column and sorted by the custom sort column I created. The order should be from 12AM - 11PM.

 

I'm not sure what the issue might be. Any idea on what I could be missing?

first select the column [Hour] , then sort it by the column [Hour Sort], then refresh the matrix.
