How to sort 2 columns with different sort keys in matrix power BI

I have the following matrix

shashank102_0-1649139526590.png 

this is imported from SSMS and table is as given below,here values are sorted by sortorder and dimensions are sorted by dimension sort.

I want to sort both of them in my matrix in power bi which is a live connection in SSAS TABULAR CUBE where dimensions order should be like # of attorneys,location,practice area,class year

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

As far as I know, this feature is supported in Table visual but not in Martix visual.

In a Table visual you could shift+left click the column header to sort the visual by multiple column.

You could submit this as an idea.
