When week on the Y axis not lined up in order (Screenshots attached)

[Anonymous]

Hello!

I am wondering how can I rearrange y-axis the weeks in order? For example, week 1, week 2, week 3, week 4... As you can see from the screenshot, the order of the week is a little messed up. I am using line chart if that helps 🙂 

Thank you!

Hi, the best way to do this is like jdbuchanan71 said. You can also solve this from other perspective. You can transform your data with two values for the int in order to order correctly. Like this:

Week 01

Week 02

...

Week 10

Week 11

Saving the data as text like this will order in correct way.

Hope this helps too.

Hello @Anonymous 

You need to add a numeric column to your table that has the week field on it.  1, 2, 10, 22, 37, etc.  Then you set the sort order on your week field to use the WeekNum column.  You can see a solution for a similar problem here.
