Sometimes you're working with a lot of data in visualizations. To optimize your view of that data in the project’s visualization canvas, you need to sort it.
If your workbook doesn't have a visualization, create one. See Begin to Build a Workbook and Create Visualizations.
- On the Home page, select a workbook, click the Actions menu, and then select Open.
- In the Visualize canvas, do one of the following:
- In the main editing panel, right click the data element you want to sort, hover over Sort By next to the element label, and select a sorting option (for example, Low to High, High to Low, None).
- In the Visualization Grammar Panel, Grammar pane, right click the data element you want to sort, hover over Sort By then click a sorting option (for example, Low to High, A to Z, None).
