Hi
I tried to follow the instruction in the post you linkned too but when I right clicked, I don't show the same options as they do. There is no sort by option. Please see screenshot below.
I clicked the 3 little dots in the upper right corner of the graphic for more options and that is where I found the Sort By - I was able to sort by date created and now my x-axis is in order 🙂
Many thanks for everyone's help
I tried sorting but recieved this error:
