Sort legend

I am not able to change the data in my bar charts according to the legend. It is sorted alphabetical but that is confusing for the viewers as it is exactly the other way around than the data in the bar charts.

If your Axis and your Legend are the same in a bar/column chart you should be able to click the ellipses and sort by that column and your legend and axis should change correspondingly. I'm on the August update.
