Sort Order

Hello. I have an issue with sorting, both in bar chart axes and a table. When I manually set a sorting order and then interact with the visualization, the sorting reverts back to the default. Alternatively, I want the bar chart to remain sorted by the Y-axis instead of the X-axis without having to manually set it every time. How can I resolve this? Thank you.

@Jolly_DC , Once you change sorting using 3 dots and save it. It should not change.

 

This is not true if you are using field parameters. It may behave differently

Oh yes, I'm sorry, I omitted it: in fact, I was referring specifically to the field parameters...
