Line and Clustered Column Chart Legend Keeps re-arranging when publishing to web.

Hi All, 

 

When I go to publish our dashboard I notice that for the Line and Clustered Column Chart the legend keeps re-arranging when I publish this. In the desktop it looks like this (and should stay like this):

But after publishing it to the web the legend changes to this:

There doesn't appear to be legend field for this type of graph, and the legend option in formatting appears to be aesthetics only. Does anyone  have any suggestions on where to start and why this might be helping? Not sure if this also helps but this is how the graph is laid out:

If it also helps 'Total CN & CP' is just a duplication of the 'Volume' Column,  Power BI automatically  cumulates the 'CN' and 'CP' values together.

 

Any assistance is appreciated, if you need anymore information please let me know. 

 

Thanks!

Hi @Jamesg1213

 

I noticed this behaviour last week as well when publishing. A little annoying as there is no way to change these. On the web it orders the legend by name which is dumb. It should be bars then lines then name like in desktop.

 

 

Something has changed because it didn't use to do this.

 

I tried changing the Style but it made no difference.
