Hello,
still looking for a solution how to sort line chart like that:
So as you can see i can sort by Date Hierarchy which is nice.
But Legend is sorted alphabetically, not by Y-Axis values (costs).
But I can not sort by Legend and some kind of measures to be sorted and applied.
Any magician can help?
How to write Daxes to achove it?
O maybe there is some other visual which will handle it for me (free one).
Will be very greatuful!
This is my model:

Hi @jaryszek
Unfortunately, sorting Legends by Y-axis values is not supported on the default tooltips for the visuals.
You can create a custom tooltip and use it as sorted by y-axis values.
I created a Custom tooltip page with Date and Legend and values.
Sorted the table visual on custom tooltip by Sum of Cos in billing currency.
Added this custom tooltip as a tooltip on the line chart.
When you hove, you see legend values are in descending ouder of y-axis values.
Just adding a small video to showcase ow it will change with X-axis granularities but still maintain the legend sorting by values.
I am also attaching the PBIX file download link here.
Hope this solution helps.
