Problem Note 64645: Custom sorts are incorrectly applied to heat maps in SAS® Visual Analytics Viewer
 |  |  |  |  |
In SAS® Visual Analytics Designer, a custom sort applied to a heat map works as expected. However, the same custom sort is not honored when you display the heat map in SAS Visual Analytics Viewer.
For example, suppose that you created a custom sort like the one shown in the following display. Items are sorted in this way: Sedan, Truck, SUV, Wagon, Hybrid, Sports.
You apply the custom sort to a bar chart and a heat map.
When displaying the report in SAS Visual Analytics Viewer, the bar chart is sorted correctly, but the heat map is unexpectedly sorted in alphabetical order.
