Hi! I’ve been playing with Losant for about a week and I am very impressed so far, both with the platform itself, and with the documentation!

Maybe there is a way to do this that isn’t clear to me, but I’d like it if it were possible to easily re-order the elements in a time series graph. It seems to me the order they are added determines their z-order in the dashboard, and it would be nice to have some more control over this.

Hello,

Thanks for your request, I will give it to our dev team! 😀

The time series graph is based on payload time stamp, but if you would like to do custom charting, the [Vega-Lite Custom Chart block](https://docs.losant.com/dashboards/custom-chart/) would be able to provide that functionality.

Hopefully this helps,  
Julia
