Scatterplot X Axis Sort Bug

Hi,

 

I have a scatterplot with X axis being Date, Y axis being count of tardiness, and legend being type of tardiness. What is weird is that with just the X and Y axis, the X axis, Date, is sorted correctly, however, once I added the legend, the sort is messed up. I have looked at the date sort and it is sorted correctly. I tried sorting ascending/descending on the plot itself but it is still messed up.

 

Anyone experienced the same issue?

 

Thanks!

Hi @v-frfei-msft 

 

I could not share the report to you as it contains private information. Nonetheless, I've changed to a stacked column chart instead and it works. 

 

Thanks!
