Sorting-Histogram Text
I have created a histogram chart with custom bins. The value is "text" and the sorting is off see below. How can I fix this?

Similar to your existing beast mode:
CASE WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 0 THEN 1 WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 20 THEN 2 WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 40 THEN 3 WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 60 THEN 4 WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 80 THEN 5 WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 100 THEN 6 WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC) `)<= 120 THEN 7 ELSE 999 END

Hi @user000253
This is because your bins are being sorted based on alphabetical sorting instead of numerical sorting (It's comparing each number one at a time in your value instead of the entire number). When I have bins like this I'll utilize a new beast mode which is similar to the original beast mode I used to create the bins and instead give it a numerical value and put that new beast mode into my sorting and sort on those numerical values.

Hi @GrantSmith
Thank you. I'm not sure I fully understand what you mean give it a numerical value?
This is my Beast Mode for the custom bins:
CASE
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 0 THEN '-20-0'
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 20 THEN '0-20'
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 40 THEN '20-40'
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 60 THEN '40-60'
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 80 THEN '60-80'
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 100 THEN '80-100'
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC) `)<= 120 THEN '100-120'
ELSE'120+'
END
Do you mean to change, the last part with a numerical value? For example:
WHEN CEILING(`Process Temperature (DegC)`)<= 20 THEN '2'
