How to change column order in table visualization?

Hello,

I just try to go my first steps with Power BI Desktop.

 

Now I have a table visualization with many columns. How can I add a column as first column? When I mark the column it will be displayed at the end of the table by default.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Regards

FrankUlf

Hi @Anonymous

 

First select your TABLE VISUAL. Then you can select a field from the VALUES section under VISUALIZTIONS and drag it up or down the list

I've resorted the value as stated, but it just reverts back tot he original order. Even if I save before exiting the table.
