Order numbers as numbers - not alphanumeric - on charts

Hello. Please fix the chart widgets so that they order numbers numerically rather than alphabetically. I have my X axis using a number column, but the order on the chart (whether ascending or descending) is alphabetical. For example, 1, 11, 12…2

Hey @jcfretts,

Would you be happy to share a screenshot of what the chart looks like on your end when ordered? I can’t seem to recreate this on my end - the numbers appear in ascending or descending order based on their value, so I’d love to take a closer look if possible :pray:

Thank you! Can you please also share at screenshot of your X + Y axis settings? I will recreate this on my end and confirm expected behaviour here :pray:

Is there a change on the roadmap for treating numbers in text as numeric rather than alphanumeric where 11, 12, 13 etc… appear in front of 2. This is really an issue for bar charts where you are trying to label the bars in a particular way. X-axis use the name (where you include numbering in the name (1. Step 1 , 2. Step 2 , 11. Step 11) Y-axis use number column with % complete.
