Field Parameter Resets Graph Ordering

The new Field Parameter is great, but I noticed that when a field parameter is selected from the slicer, the graph visual (in this case the Clustered Bar Chart) does not retain the sort axis field and ascending/descending order. It seems to reset every time a new group is selected from the parameter slicer. The current graph hierarchy is also reset every time a parameter slicer is selected.

    Yes, that is a good point RHOU . I thought this issue would have been addressed by now, but it still persists.

    Thanks RHOU, that is helpful for sorting purposes. I do have quite a few fields in my parameter, so it will require me to create quite a few sorting fields.

     

    However, my biggest frustation with the field parameters is how a table hierarchy is lost when another field is selected from a parameter slicer. 

     

    I have two levels in the table below, Parater field and Gender.

     

    The gender level is lost when I select another field parameter option. 

    Users have to expand one level down to see it, and many users may not know how, and it will require more explanation on my end--not an intuitive solution.

     

    This problem seems to apply to bar chart hierchies as well.

    Did you manage to find a fix for the field parameters resetting hierarchies? Its rather frustrating.

    No, I have not found a solution. Feel free to follow up with Microsoft as I'm not sure if an update for this is even in the works.

    It is very surprising and rather shocking to see this issue which was raised 2022 still persists. Microsoft team, please fix it.
