How to add sort arrow mark in each column?

Hi! I'm new to PowerBI and would need help in adding the sort arrow mark in all column fields instead of clicking the "..." to sort my data in ascending or descending order. How do I do that? Please help. Thank you!

Hi @dannavp ,

 

The idea that you want to add an arrow mark to each column is not supported. The arrow mark only appears in the “total” column because you selected sort by this column, if you select another column then the arrow mark will change position, as the tests I did showed:

 

I sorted them in descending order based on the "CustomerKey" column, the arrow mark appears below this column name

Then I sorted in descending order by “ TotalChildren” column, the arrow mark changed.

So the arrow mark is specific to a particular sorted column and it can’t appear in each column .

@dannavp , it should appear once you sort on that column

The arrow mark does not appear in every column. That's what I would want to happen in all of my tables. The arrow mark only appears in the "Total" column.
