If you look at the attached screenshot, you’ll see my legend appears in alphabetical order. Now, to someone not knowing - - you’d expect that the “highest” department is “B”. In fact, not so - it is “Fic”.
Question: Is there a way for the legend to be in a more “relevant” order according to what is displayed in the chart? I remember seeing this subtle functionality in Tableau and thinking it was really useful. If this does not exist in power bi, is there a way I could sort my legend by my measure Running Total? . This would still improve the usability of the viz would be improved.
Thank you, but that doesn’t work. I am able to sort by Total Cost but then my x-axis (weeks) goes out of order. And, my legend stays in alphabetical order.
