Having the bars potentially change order with every time-slice would make the overall presentation confusing and difficult to parse. </P> Thu, 06 Aug 2015 21:23:35 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-order-the-bars-within-each-time-segment-of-a-timechart/m-p/162840#M46230 emiller42 2015-08-06T21:23:35Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-order-the-bars-within-each-time-segment-of-a-timechart/m-p/162841#M46231 <P>you got a point! it's a customer request and I couldn't figure out a solution.<BR /> is there a way to do with just regular chart?</P> Fri, 07 Aug 2015 12:43:15 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-order-the-bars-within-each-time-segment-of-a-timechart/m-p/162841#M46231 antonyhan 2015-08-07T12:43:15Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-order-the-bars-within-each-time-segment-of-a-timechart/m-p/162842#M46232 <P>say with in 5 mins we have A100, B 1000, C 50. right now plain vanilla timechart with bar will order by legend name. Instead of the order of A B C, we would like to see an order of BAC from top to bottom as B has the largest value. Hope this explains.</P> Fri, 07 Aug 2015 12:45:59 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-order-the-bars-within-each-time-segment-of-a-timechart/m-p/162842#M46232 antonyhan 2015-08-07T12:45:59Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-order-the-bars-within-each-time-segment-of-a-timechart/m-p/162843#M46233 <P>timechart will not be able to do this. Just plain stats would help you with ordering based on values, but will not have _time in this case:</P> <P>sourcetype=test2| stats sum(Count) as Count by Name| sort - Count</P> <P>Data:<BR /> Name,Count<BR /> A,100<BR /> B,1000<BR /> C,10</P> Tue, 11 Aug 2015 06:17:50 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-order-the-bars-within-each-time-segment-of-a-timechart/m-p/162843#M46233 meenal901 2015-08-11T06:17:50Z
