Is there a way to lock the position of nodes in a Sankey Diagram once they've been moved? Everytime I manipulate the data to fix a label, create a new connection, the nodes move into a random(?) order. I'm not sure how that's determined by the program.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @goalie_ ,
You can sort these nodes by [Index] column.
First create the index column in Power Query.
1. Group by Destination column.
2. Add Index column.
3. Expand all columns.
Then select the [Destination] column and sort by [Index] column.
If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,

Hi may I know if there is a function that we can sort the sankey chart node based on the value in Descending order?
