Why can't I sort this PowerBI chart?

Question

I have charts I want to sort descending. I've read there's a "more options" option if you click on the chart, which should give you ability to sort.

In chart below, there is no sorting option:

Here is the field the chart is based on (it's a single field):

And here's the way I set up the chart:

I click 'more options' and yet see no option to sort. Who knew such a simple task could be that difficult in PowerBI.

Answer 1

You are using a clustered bar chart. The columns are arranged alphabetically and can't be changed.

If you want to sort the bars by their values, use a regular stacked bar chart and put the "demo_female" in the Axis, not the Legend.
