Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to allow users an option to sort values in my matrix table by the values themselves, instead of by column. Below is the Matrix I am using:
As can be seen, it is possible to sort "Major" (my rows) alphabetically. However, I'd also like users to be able to sort by % and # (which are measures), largest to smallest. Currently I am unable to do so. When I remove my column ("Year"), it allows me to sort them, but Year a a crucial component of this matrix so I do not want to get rid of it.
Is there a way to allow users to sort by values within a column, similar to how row currently has that sort option?
Hi @msogge
You can sort the visual by the mesaure, click sort by measure, and you can set the sort order :ascending or descending. You can refet to the following picture.
Best Regards!
