Okay, I've been digging around Keynote for about an hour trying to find the solution to my problem. Now I turn to you geni0ses to help.

I plan to replace Excel with Keynote for my chart-making needs. I was experimenting with it tonight and found out that I could whip up a very nice chart, very fast. The only problem I'm having is with the legend. See my chart in progress here.

As you can see, the legend if "flipped". I'd like for the order of the legends to correspond to the graph. If anyone can give me a hint as to how to "flip" the ordering of the data, I would be very grateful.

Thanks!

I have so far found no way to do this, either.
Perhaps some one on the Apple Support forum would have an idea (other than using a picture editor to cut apart the legend and move items by hand...)

Heh, that's exactly what I did, but the finished charts still looked very good.
