Chiclet Slicer

Hi team,

 

I had a model which has chiclet slicer for month names.  As you can see below. 

 

The way I sorted the month name correct is by putting column 'month' (a column that has month as whole numbers, ex 1 for jan, 2 for feb ...etc) as values.  As you can see below.

 

This way i could sort by 'Month' column and ensure that months are showing up in correct order in the chicetslicer.  

 

Suddeny something happened and i cannot put 'Month' in Values anymore.  Has anyone seen this as to why this might be happening? and how to fix it?

Hi, @salman_ali  Because this visual is not official, and the creator doesn't seem to set the use of values. So we need to use other ways.😊

this was easy.  I still think it is a bigger issue as to why i cannot add a column to the values field, but for now the solution worked.  Thanks a lot
