LEGEND Manual Sorting

It would be of great help if you can give users an option to sort the order of the Legend manually. Thanks!

I am in agreement with others. For a stacked bar chart, you'd want to associate the data range that appears on top with the first legend entry so that your eye can scan top to bottom, left to right. It looks awkward otherwise.

WHY DOESN'T MICROSOFT LISTEN??? Users have been complaining about MS using us as Beta testers since the '80s. They put this stuff out before it's ready. A SMART marketing team would have looked at the competition and made sure that PBI could at least do what other BI tools can do. Stuff like this - being able to sort legends - and other simple no-brainer customer-expected features such as being able to filter using cards, having more control over graphics, should NOT still be "ideas" from customers. The original development team should have known that these were useful functions, and built them in from the start. WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO LISTEN, MICROSOFT???

I see people making work arounds for this, annoying to have to create helper data just to get a legend that doesn't put Disagree between Agree and Strongly Agree on survey responses. Manual sort please!!!
