PM52926: MODELER PLOT NODE USING LINE MODE AND "AS READ" SETTING IN DROP DOWN DOES NOT PLOT X AXIS IN DATA ORDER

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• You are producing Modeler plot output and in the node options
  have "line" mode selected with "As read" selected in the "X
  mode" drop down so that the X axis is ordered as the values
  appear in the data. You are using a categorical variable on the
  X axis. When the output is produced the vlalues seem to be in
  sorted order rather than the order that they appear in the data.
