Custom order for legend

[krishnas]

I should be able to order the "legend" and the values for each legend category in a stacked bar chart. This is similar to "series order" feature in Excel

Does anyone have a quick workaround for this? Custom sort is a feature that is absolutely needed.

Quick workaround: since it's sorted alphabetically, rename the data to have some number of spaces before it. "__legend1" "_legend2" "legend3" will sort as desired. Legend displayed at top of page strips preceding spaces, but the desired sort is achieved!

Waterfalls only sort from increment to decrement for one measure (Variance to Budget) in my case, when switching to other measures (i.e. Variance to Forecast) the cart does not order by value and instead orders by the item names alphabetically in the x-axis. There is no sorting option to change this

'@N1c0l3 - thanks your workaround solution did the trick - but yes agree this should be a standard feature to allow custom sorting

for example if i have this values in a column: 0-5,5-10,10-15,15+ and i wanted to display this value in a visual in this order.

Would be very useful, please add this feature!

I have the same issue. The Power BI Team needs to provide some method to manually select the legend order.

100% agreed. Allows you to avoid having to create a date workout for custom date hierarchy structures.

custom sort of strings for example i have this ranges: 0-5,5-10,10-15,15+ and i want to display the visual in this order.

i found something, there are 3 dots in the top right corner of the chart, here you can change the order of the bars.
