Sankey Diagram automatically pushes all data to left

Is it possible to make the sankey diagram not push all of the data to the left? Currently this is how my diagram looks and I do not like how everything is forced to the left. I thought I structured the data so that it would not do so and would go into many levels but I guess not. Is there some kind of setting to adjust this? I would just drag and drop the data but there is way too many pieces to deal with. This is an image of how my disgram is looking right now. Thanks in advance!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

As far as I know there are only there Fields in Sankey Chart, Source, Destination and Weight. I think what your Sankey Chart looks like is only based on your columns in Source and Destination Fields. There are too many values in hierachy level1 in your Source and Destination columns will cause your Sankey Chart push all of the data to the left.

This kind of result may be better.

In the image you provided above, is it possible to add something to push values "Africa China", "Africa India", and "Africa Japan" all the way to the right instead of having it stop mid graph? That is the problem that I am facing essentialy because not all of my values have the same path length which is why things appear to be pushed on the left.

Am I able to add padding to the different levels? And make it so that certain levels are in certain positions horizontally
