Hi,
I am trying to follow a tutorial to learn Power BI Report Builder. I already have a list made using the tutorial, but task 4, step 23 shows that I should be able to sort the list. It shows there should be an option in the Properties pane under Other called "SortExpressions", right between "Parent" and "Zindex". The only problem is that this option does not exist and is instead replaced with "RepeatWith" and "ToolTip", neither of which are selectable.
I have already done the entire tutorial up to this point, so if you want to recreate my work you can just do it on your own. Shouldn't be necessary to solve the problem though. I think it was caused by an update between when the tutorial was written and now, so what I'm really looking for is the new way to sort a list.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
Solved! Go to Solution.
The properties you are showing appear to be for a individual row in the list, not for the whole list. If you click on the grey square in the top left corner the whole list will be selected and the you should see the SortExpression property
