How to fully disable sort on table visual?

I have a table visual, where I am only displaying KPIs, so I wanted to fully disable the 'sort' option.

 

By "fully disabled" I mean that when the pbix is published, not even letting a user sort it by clicking it... (If the user clicks the column title, it should not sort).

 

(i am consuming from a ssas tabular, so I dont have a 'Data' view/panel, I only have 'Model' and 'Report')

@ovonel I don't think there is an option to disable sort, what you can do is to add a box on top of the header with transparency as a background color so that users cannot click the heading.

Hi, @ovonel 

As mentioned by @parry2k ,it is not supported to disable sorting in a table visual currently.You can create a transparent rectangle shape or button on top of the column headers of the table, and then group it and the table. 

You can refer to this related thread.

You can also vote for this related idea on Power BI Ideas forum. If there are enough votes, the Product Team will evaluate and take good consideration about it.
