Determine stacked bar chart order

[Jan-Rienk]

Like mentioned here, I’d like to be able to re-arrange the order of stacked bar charts, as it seems random a.t.m.

@Jan-Rienk

I am curious if in the future we’ll be able to change the sorting of the different data labels.

In this example the colours (determined by custom field options) indicate a different health/completion state, but now the order seems random.

I’d love to be able to determine the order so I can arrange them bottom up from good (green) to bad (red) and put grey (unknown) on top of that.

I’ve tried changing the order of the custom field options but this had no effect.

Today I encountered the same issue again in creating a dashboard. This is not the way I’d like to present the data to our CEO…

Related: The same random order seems to appear when creating a donut chart.

Agreed, also trying to do this today - it makes the stacked bar useless!

[Josh_Meehan-Hill]

It defaults to order by task count (i.e. your unknown has the most and good has the second most) no idea why it does this.

Big +1 on this! Stacked bars can be hard to interpret without sorting control.
