Change order of categorical columns in graph

Created: Aug 13, 2020 03:55 AM  |  Last Modified: Jun 11, 2023 4:04 AM (1535 views)

Hi

 

I'm new to the forum. I'm making a graph which has many rows containing a column of real numbers "measurement (mm)" and one of categrorical labels "Height". I want to have the graph divided into groups of each height. But the order of the height is not desireable. See picture. Is there a way to change the order of the grouping with nominal data labels?

Add the column property Value Order and arrange the Height levels the way that you want. Right-click the Height column header and select Column Properties. Then select Value Order.

 

This way is a global change so that you do not have to re-order the levels every where that they might appear (local change).
