Sorting Visualization Series

I am trying to sort the series in this visualization in ascending order. I have looked for ways to fix this issue, but I have not been able to troubleshoot it on my own. I have seen forums that have shown an option on the visualization to sort the data but I don't see the option pop up for me. The table in which this data is being pulled is already in the desired order that I want it to show up in the visual. Looking for insight on how to fix this.

Hi @Anonymous ,
Based on the screenshot you provided, it appears that you right-clicked on the visual object thus bringing up this selection box. If you want to sort the data of the visual object, you can click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the visual object to sort the values, either on the x-axis or on the y-axis.
