How do I sort the slicer values based on another column in the same visual?
How do I sort the slicer values based on measure?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @smilika ,
First of all, the fields that can be applied to the slicer can only be calculated columns or fact fields in the table, meaures can't be put on the slicer. Also, since you are connecting to a data source with live connection mode, you can't create any calculated column. Please check the link below if its possible to realize your requirement as a workaround.

It doesn't give an option in the sorting. The slicer has to be sorted by calculated column.
The sonnection I am using is Live Connection. Is there any way to sort the slicer values based on the measure. Can you give any suggestions please.

@smilika , On the three dots of the visual, you have the option to choose. Also, you can add additional measures in the tooltip to sort on something, not in the visual
If the sort need another column on the axis
