Hi,
I have some quirky behaviour on my reports which I assume is user error on my part.
I have some graphs which are backed with some multi level sort in their respective table view. The mutli level sort works fine as expected.
However, whenever I alter the multi-level sort and change the table back into a graph etc, the mutli-level is reverted back. Its almost as if my changes to mutli-level do not save.
I have a workaround where I can just recreate the table/graph but then I have to do all the formatting again.
What am I doing wrong here?
Cheers,
Scott

Hi @Anonymous ,
You need to customize the sort before you create the visual.
