I have created a stacked bar chart in using plotly express that visualises edits made to a files in GDrive, and who made those edits.

My source dataframe has columns

• file_path
• emailAddress (of the person editing the file)
• tally

I have file_path plotted on the x axis.

The problem I’m having is that I want all the bars to appear in descending order of edits, regardless of who made those edits. As you can see that’s not happening right now.

Here is my code:

import plotly.graph_objects as go

fig = go.Figure()

# Get a list of unique email addresses to create one trace per email address
email_addresses = df['emailAddress'].unique()

# Create a trace for each email address
for email in email_addresses:
    df_filtered = df[df['emailAddress'] == email]
    fig.add_trace(go.Bar(x=df_filtered['path_name'], y=df_filtered['tally'], name=email))

# Update the layout to stack the bars
fig.update_layout(barmode='stack', xaxis_title="File path", yaxis_title="Tally", title="Tally by file path and Email Address")

fig.show()

Can anyone suggest how I change this to get all bars appearing in descending order of edits, regardless of who made the edits.
