Since October it is now (finally) possible to reverse the order of the stacked columns (see feature summary: Power BI October 2022 Feature Summary | Microsoft Power BI Blog | Microsoft Power BI😞
By default it is in the incorrect order if you compare it to the legend. I want to change this in the Json theme such that the toggle is on and it will apply for all stacked column charts in the report.
Could somebody help me with the Json code for the theme? I tried the following but without results:
Hi @Anonymous ,

Hi Yadong,
It does not say anything about the reverse stack order option. Perhaps it has not been updated it yet since this new feature in October?
Thanks,

Hi @Anonymous ,
There is this possibility, as the article said :
Note: due to an issue we found late in development, this feature will be unavailable in the Service for published reports until later this month.

Thanks for thinking along Yadong! I am using Power BI desktop though. Would you expect it to work here? And do you know which code I should use in the json theme?
Thanks!
