Sorting on a calculated column containing a switch statement

I have the following bins/groups created for my data using this switch statement;

Ends up looking like this on a sorted line chart;

As you can see the sorting is all over the place, I believe its now trying to sort on text values. How can I sort in asc order?

Hi @rax99

 

You may try to add an order column as below. Then drag it to 'Tooltips' to sort the chart.

Order = PATHITEM( SUBSTITUTE(Table1[Text],"-","|"),1,INTEGER)
