Why isn't my Performance analyzer result sorting?

Hello everyone,

 

I am learning to use the Performance Analyzer, I want to sort the result by time taken, but Power BI is ignoring my sort preference, it is just staying at the Action order.

 

 

Any help would be great.

    Hi BenBlackswan 

    Duration sorting is partitioned between actions suchs "Changed a filter", "Changed a slicer", "Changed page", or "Refreshed visual" etc events.

     

    So sorting will only be effective if multiple visuals are affected by an action. In your example it appears that only one visual was impacted after each action, so sorting has no effect.

     

    Are you able to try performing an action that affects multiple visuals, such as clicking "Refresh visuals", then try sorting?

     

    Regards
