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

[sanjana_putchal]

I need this feature too

[peter_siposss]

how much for this option?

[stollafield]

Just ran into the exact same need. I'd like to sort by rank in the overall data set. (i.e. for me this would put what is by far always the tallest bar on the bottom of the stack.)

Still a feature that is needed: Makes the visual flow and subsequent interpretation easier for users. UX is still important and needs to be supported through features like this. Appreciating the work in the other ideas and hope this can be considered very soon...

This function is very important, please add it.

This has been a standard built-in feature in Tableau since 2011 at least from my own experience.. http://thevizioneer.blogspot.com/2014/04/day-2-hidden-reference-line-totals.html

This would be valuable when showing values that align linearly with the process being measured

This really is a basic charting request. What's the point in stacked bars if they aren't ordered consistently across the stacks? Who wants anything other than that - it should not only be an option, it should be the default.

can we have all excel features please

Essential for having a chart that looks appealing as time moves to the right. Without the ability to sort the order, you are left with "white space" when things taper off. Having the ability to place the longest running activities on the bottom would ensure minimal gaps.
