Sort Column values Matrix percent of row total

When creating a Matrix visual , I would like to know the percentage of recharge per resource. In my Data these values are hours (whole numbers). In the Matrix I turn these hours into percent of row total to have percentage values per resource. After doing that I can't sort on these percentage values in the Matrix. (see sceenshot). I would like to have the highest NO percentage on 1st place sorting from there to the lowest value. Someone here who has a bypass for that via some code?

 

I already have added this as idea to solve in next updates if voted enough 🙂
