Hi all,
The standard Treemap visual sorts the items from largest to smallest Value and it cannot be custom-sorted by default. Imagine we want to present the info in a specific order, other than the default. Is there any workaround for this (with the standard visual or another one)?
Many thanks
You can't but you can filter by top/bottom N on the visual filter and select the value/measure you want to.
Hi @AlB ,
It is sorted by default. The rectangles in treemap are arranged in size from top left (largest) to bottom right (smallest). I didn't find any workaround for it. I also suggest you create an idea for it in https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas to improve the power bi.
Best Regards,
Dedmon Dai
If there isn't an existing visual, you might be able to do it with Charticulator (at least easy to try).
Regards,
Pat
