Power BI Matrix Chart Manual Sorting

Hi All,

            I have a user who wants to manually sort the column values in a matrix chart. Normally it would work but the chart has two values per column value and the column selection is dymanic selection by slicer.

I did see that i can select a default selection of sort from the chart option but want to know if that can be dynamic and done on the visual.


Visual for reference:

The can select the matrix visual and then click on “..."(More options) in the upper right. Find the sorting related options and then go for the appropriate settings.

I did check but those options are for columns that need to be sorted by another column. I need the solution to work for the end user when the report is published
