How to reverse Excel legend order?

As Karima pointed out : the solution that works is simple, although not intuitive: Change the place of the legend to right and then to left (or reverse) and you get the desired order.

I have an Excel graph (a stacked bar chart) where years are on the x-axis.
The problem is that the order of the legend labels doesn't fit with the order of the values in the bars as shown in the picture below.
How can I change the legend order or reverse it ?

Karima Touati over 4 years@cybernetic.nomad I resolved the problem. It was not linked to the data table. I simply changed the place of the legend to right and then to left so I got the desired order.
