How to sort data in power bi clustered column chart in direct query mode?

[Anonymous]

I have clustered column chart in direct query mode. I want to sort the columns but can not do it by adding new sorted column due to direct query mode and I can not switch to exctract mode. 

How to achieve sorting without adding new column?

Hi @Anonymous 

In DirectQuery, you can also create a new column for sorting although it doesn't display the data in the table.
