Is there a way to sort ascending for a bar graph in widget form in a dashboard?

I have a report where I have grouped and summarized data. I now need to sort those groups based on the count of the lines of data in each group. Is there a way to do that before I create a widget and add it to a dashboard? I want to show the ascending count on the bar graph widget.

Unless you are lucky enough that your group sort just happens to line up with the count, no. You'd have to build your summary data on a separate metric sheet, then build the report from that with the sort you need.
