In February 2017 release I can't sort descending a chart, before was 2 click in More Options chart to do that, somebody knows if that option has changed?

Hi @miguel1206,

 

I just verified that the sort descending option is still there in More Options, and you need to set X-Axis type to Categorical, and not Continuous under Format tab to make this option available for a Chart in More Options.Smiley Happy

Its still there... What chart are you using? Do you have anything on the Axis?

I am on the Feb update and I see that option when clicking on the ellipses (...) for something like a column chart but only if it doesn't have a legend or does not have a hierarchy for the axis.
