Hi all,
I found ways of sorting matrix column descending but only for Years. I need to make that work for Date hierarchy (Year / Short month).
All ideas will be much appreciated.
Hello ,
I have tried this before a year ago :
1 - change it to table
2 - to sort the columns press ALT and click on the coloumn keep the alt on to sort more than one column
3- cahnge it back to matrix
if it didnt work , dlete the matrix and do it again staring from table
Hi @bhelou ,
I created a new table to tried that, and though I sort as desired (descending),
when turning the Table into Matrix (Year and Short month in Columns), sorting turns back to ascending.
