I'd like to change the order of my within-group variable in a plotly bar plot in Python. For example, how can I switch the order of lunch and dinner here?

import plotly.express as px
df = px.data.tips()
fig = px.bar(df, x='sex', y='total_bill', color='time', barmode='group')
fig.show()

enter image description here

categoryorder can only change the order of groups, i.e. Male and Female.

Sort the df in descending order basis the column time.

import plotly.express as px
df = px.data.tips()
df.sort_values(['time'],ascending=[False],inplace=True)
fig = px.bar(df, x='sex', y='total_bill', color='time', barmode='group')
fig.show()

OUTPUT: enter image description here
