Power Bi Chart Sorting

PackageAnalysis.png

I have an issue with my chart shown. I want to sort the chart by 2 levels, 1. The "CalendarWeek" alfabeticaly on the X axis, and then by the Value "Count by Defect" on the Y axis. How can I do that?

HI @Anonymous ,

 

To do this you need to have a workaround.

Create the following measure:

 

Sorting Measure = 
var weekID = 1000 - RIGHT(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[CalendarWeek]), 2) *100
Return
weekID + COUNT('Table'[Defect])

 

Now add this measure on your tooltips and you can sort by it:
