Hi guys,
I am struggling to enable sorting or column Category by column Category_Order. I did such sorting numerous times before without any issue but this time I cannot proceed.
As you can see, each category have its unique Category_Order number. The column Category_Order is formatted as whole number.
What I am doing wrong this time?
Thank you for any help

Hi @HotChilli , the issue got resolved after closing and reopening Power BI Desktop file.
There's something a little odd about the Category_order column. Numbers are right-justified in data view and they usually have a slightly different font applied.
Is this some strange setting I don't know about or has something gone wonky with the column/datatype?
