I am using ArcGIS 2.9.0 and having issue re-sorting the classified symbology for elevation layer. I am trying to flip the order of the depth ranges in legend to be listed from shallow (on top) to deeper, instead of displaying deeper to shallow. Looks like we should be able to do it by clicking on 'More' under 'Classes' tab then 1. 'Reverse values' and 2. 'Reverse symbol order'.
For some reason, when I apply 'Reverse symbol order' the symbol flips in legend/symbol list but the content in mapframe is also flipped. Same steps with same data, works without any issue in ArcGIS pro 2.8.2. I tried saving a desired layer file in ArcMap 10.8 as well as Pro 2.8.2 and import into my ArcGIS 2.9.0 but the .lyr file also shows deep (on top) to shallow depth in legend/TOC though it is displayed correctly in mapframe.
Any help on what could be causing this issue and solution please.

I was having this issue all of a sudden and this is the only solution I could find.
