    Categories in reverse order for stacked bar chart 2 axis

    Hello

    Not sure why, but does anyone know how to resolve the issue on the attached image

    I have a stacked bar chart, one attribute is on 2nd axis as its the sum of the others to show the absolute change.

    When I select categories in reverse order only the attributes on the 1st axis change, those on the 2nd axis do not.

    You may need to show the second X axis, apply that setting there too, then you can hide it again.

    I want to sort the retailer by reverse order, as its extracted from software in a particular order and for some reason with stacked bar charts it draws it in reverse order.
    When I do this, measures 1 to 4 (primary axis) are correct, but the total change black bar on the secondary axis doesnt swap.

    I tried the above, alignning the two axis so that it crosses 0 but it just screws it up

    attached is an example
