Add a custom sort to a Power Bi Slicer

I have a table with a list of floors descriptions and their sort order, which is sorting by description

Garbo62_0-1710268123453.png

How do I sort the slicer (old style) by LFlorSort and  not description (LFLorDesc)

I have set the table to sort by LFlorSort and works fine in tables, just not Sllicers

Hi @Garbo62 ,

 

You can specify that the LFLorDesc field is sorted based on LFlorSort.

Do you mean just have a table with the numbers -2,-1,0,1,2,3,4........... linked to the floor list.

As at preesent all the Ground floors in the portfolio have a sort of 0 and all the first floors have a sort of 1
