Hi All,
I want to sort the New category in the Matrix at below Pic 1 based on the order in the Pic 2 below. When I choose the sort by Category, it only sort by aphabetical order of the New Category instead of the order under Index column.
Can you please advise how I can sort the New category to follow the order shown in the Pic 2?

Hi @kelvin-lkh ,
According to your description, to sort the index columns in the matrix you need to add the index field to the matrix visual.
If the problem is still not resolved, please point it out. Looking forward to your feedback.
Best Regards,
Henry
