Radar Chart Days of the Week Order

Is there any way to get a Radar Chart to display the date in Day of the Week order when you use the name of the day? It works fine with the day number but that is not much use for the labels. You can't sort by any other field except those shown in the chart and I have sorted my table in the right order but the chart just gives it the middle finger and is off on its merry way displaying jumbled rubbish.

 

I swear the way this program handles dates and the lack of formatting options for labels will see me in a straight jacket possibly before Christmas. I wish I could stay with PowerPivot and Excel.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Thurmus,

 

Power BI has a solution for this scenario. Please refer to the snapshot below.

1. Add a column of Day number. Seems you already have one.

Column = WEEKDAY([Datekey], 2)

2. Change "Sort By column" to "Column".
