How to put the total column at the leftmost of a matrix?

Hello!

 

I'm new to PowerBI. I want to know if it's possible for the total column to be at the leftmost part of my matrix and how? I want to see it as the first column.

 

What I have in the matrix:

Row - n/a

Column - Category

Values = Measures 1-5

 

 Category ACategory B Category CCategory DTotal
Measure 1576321
Measure 2332617
Measure 3442919
Measure 4983626
Measure 5345215

 

What I want the matrix to be:

 TotalCategory ACategory B Category CCategory D
Measure 1215763
Measure 2173326
Measure 3194429
Measure 4269836
Measure 5153452

@ChristianDLS56 , I doubt that. You have to use hybrid visual workaround
