Sort 100% Stacked Column Chart by Percentage Values

In my Power BI Desktop file, I'm using the 100% Stacked Column Chart to compare 2 values for 10 people and the only options to sort the bars are:

  • x-axis value (person's name)
  • Value 1 of the bar chart
  • Value 2 of the bar chart

But, I want the bar charts to sort by the Value 1 % (which is Value 1 / [Value 1 + Value 2]) or the Value 2 %.  Thus, in the screenshot below, it would look like a waterfall with the blue colors sorting largest to smallest.

 

Is there a workaround for this?  Or something I'm not thinking of?

Okay I got the %s you say in the Post above - and they calculate exactly as you say!

 

However we were there before with the calculated columns only - those were producing the same results?

And you said they were wrong?
