Sam,

Sorry, the Sankey Diagram only does what is documented.  The order of the nodes can't be controlled, though that would be a good option we will consider for the future.

Hi

I am wondering if anyone can tell me whether or not the nodes of a Sankey Diagram can be fixed and sorted by their name? I am also wondering if two nodes can have the same label. I am looking at school performance bands, and the bands are named the same across years. 

Currently, my nodes are numbered in the form of [Year #].[Band #] to get around the naming issue I have come up with (not being able to name any two nodes the same). I would like to fix the nodes in descending order by year. 

Let me know if you require greater clarification. 

Kind regards

I would just like to second this request for control of the vertical arrangement of nodes in google viz's Sankey chart.  It seems to be a critical part of using a Sankey dig. to visualize change in time between fixed categories.

Regards,
Keith

Hi Daniel,

Any update on sorting the nodes?

It would be really helpful.

Best,
Behzad
