PIE Chart Status Display, how to re-order the display count

Question

We use 5 different status' denoted by a number in the first character.  e.g., "1. To Do";  "2.  Devel";  "3. QA" and so on.  Jira appears to display the status counts randomly, e.g., 3, 2 4, and so on.

Any way to get them re-sequenced in the order above (btw it would be ASC since there is a # in the title).  I have tried the SEQUENCE parameter, but perhaps I am not using it correctly.  Also, I re-ordered the filter but that does not work either.  The status totals are correct, but managenet want the stats categories to be sequenced.    ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOMED!

Although it appears to work, we have not downloaded the new Pie Chart app as of yet.  Basically I am awaiting management review and approval.  Will get back to you later!

Hi @[deleted],

I'm not aware of any way this can be done using the built-in Jira pie chart, but I was also frustrated that you couldn't change the order of the pie chart segments, so I built an app that allows you to re-order segments and change the colors.

It's called Custom Charts for Jira and you can check it our right now on our interactive app playground: https://www.oldstreetsolutions.com/custom-charts-for-jira

For the ordering you need you can use the drag-and-drop feature.

There's also other chart types and some advanced features such as Chart By Custom JQL.

I hope that offers a solution to your problem :)
