Custom Sort X Axis on waterfall chart?

‎07-25-2019 09:04 AM

Is there anyway to custom sort the x-axis on a waterfall chart or will it always put the biggest change amount first? I tried using the sort by colum but got an error. 

 

I also tried loading a custom table with the sort order and using that table in the graph but it didn't apply the custom sorting.

@Anonymous whatever the sort order for the column you have on x-axis, it will show based on that. Not sure why it is not working for you

@parry2k  I probaly mispoke a little calling it the x-axis. On the waterfall chart it's actually called the "breakdown." So I guess I'm wondering if that would be able to be custom sorted?

@Anonymous that make sense. i think you cannot custom sort that breakdown column (afaik)
