Why are my stacked column series not maintaining a constant series order from low to high?

Most likely you have chosen the Series Order option from the main EDIT > Plot menu. When using Stacked or Stacked Percentage plot (either column or bar), you have the choice to use:

• Default
• Descending
• Ascending

Default will maintain the constant series order for each column/bar. But Descending/Ascending will order each column from low to high or vice-versa. So you could see Series A at the top of one column but at the bottom of another column.
