Allow you to sort slicers alphabetically ascending or descending - currently their are no sorting options. Also, sorting based on another field in the same table would be really handy.

RE: Sorting on a Slicer

How can I sort a slicer that is based on the month name (January, February, March..). Its sorting Alphabetically which is not what we want. We have a second column (MonthInteger) which we really want to sort on but I can't figure out how to do this with a slicer. Is this possible?

RE: Sorting on a Slicer

It would be better to make sorting based on expressions.

Thanks for the Update. This is great news, hopefully there are many more updates in September because I am just about to start rolling out and I am missing many required features.

Very important when have for example a Product slicer for sales rep and the Company has 1000+ Products... Being able to sort by sold value would level up the dashboard immensely
