How to custom sort by column headers

DEADBEEF
Path Finder

I have a table that shows the number of logs by severity over each host.  I want to be able to rearrange the severity columns into a specific order but can't figure out how.  I tried using custom sort field via eval but didn't seem to work.

Current SPL

 

index=foo sourcetype=logs
| chart count over server by severity

 


Current Table Order

 

server   major   info   critical    minor
serverA   5       10       8          6
serverB   22       5       13         9

 

 

Desired Table Order

 

server   critical  major   minor  info
serverA   8         5       6      10
serverB   13        22      9       5
