    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Add the sort order column to tooltip field, then you should be able to sort the visual by that column.

        Hi mohammedadnant ,

        Is there any solution for the visual to sort by the custom sort order? I've tried rebuilding my visual but the legend won't sort by the custom order if it's a column chart..
