Interface Designer Charts - Sort X Axis by Single Select Order

[Street_ops]

Hey Airtable Peeps!

I’m about a month into the process of migrating most of my company’s core google sheet docs into Airtable, and we’re all loving it! Many things for such an awesome product.

I’m building out some Interface Designer dashboards for my boss to get a high-level view of operations, and ran into a snag. In the sidebar apps on the table it defaults to sorting single-select fields by their user order, which is the behavior that I want. This is what it looks like:

But on my interface, I created a bar chart that shows each record filtered by a single-select column, but my only sort options are ascending/descending alphabetical.

So this is a two-part question:

1. Feature Request: The option to sort charts driven by single-select fields by user order.
2. Workaround: In leu of that, how would you recommend I sort this (without just adding a number to the names, that would break several other formulas).

Thanks!
Paul

100% Unhelpful, self indulgent bump comment. :winking_face:

Agree 100% - Interface is a great concept and it’s so close to being production-ready. That it sorts the data alphabetically rather than how it’s ordered in the table seems like a strange oversight and hopefully it’s at the top of the list of items to be fixed. Once it is, we can go live with Interface with some of our clients and internal partners.

This is really needed!  We are trying to build pipeline views and there is no way to just show them based on the status order, I'm having to make a giant switch formula to show status as a number so we can sort them which is a pain!
