Max numbr of legend elements?

[mdunnavant]

There appears to be an issue with having legends with more than 60-ish items (based on my testing seems to be right around 62).  Once the number gets above 60-ish, legend items start being removed from the legend in descending alphabetical order.  This also removes the associated data from the visualization.  I'm trying to provide a stacked bar chart showing staff and work efforts, but this is preventing me from completing the task.

Anyone know how to work around this?

can you please sample post data and screenshot for the same.

Let me give this a shot.

Here is the stacked bar with 60 elements being displayed.  All is fine.

Here I've added one associate increasing the total number of elements to 62.  Notice how 18 and 9 elements are now missing from the second row and the 28 element is missing from the row one up from bottom.  These also happen to be the bottom 3 elements when sorted alphabetically.

If I add all associates (130 elements) I get this.  Which is simply missing a TON of data.

This may not be the right choice of  visaul for the requirement. And if you have stacked chart with 100+ coloures, it wont be readable also. You can consider creating higher lever chart and drill down for detail data.
