Sorting Day of Week on the X-Axis

Hello
I'm working on a card where I want to represent the data by Day of Week, I've used the beastmode formula Dayname() to get myself the day of week of the date I require, however when I plot it with the days' names on the X-axis, I'm not sure how do I sort them so that it goes from Monday through Sunday.

You’d need to create another beast mode with a case statement to return a numerical value for the day and order you want
CASE WHEN DAYNAME(`date`) = 'Sunday' then 8 ELSE DAYOFWEEK(`date`) end
DAYOFWEEK returns 1-7 for Sunday-Saturday the case statement just shifts Sunday to 8 so it’s last
Put this beast mode in your sorting section on your card to then order your days
