Hi Gopal4416,

The new logic for sorting visuals is:

1. If your visual uses a column that has an associated order-by column, we will sort by that by default (you can set this up using the Sort by column feature)
2. Otherwise, if your field is a date field, we will sort in chronological order
3. Lastly, if you don’t have an order-by column or date field, we will sort by the measure descending.

So the visual is sorted by default.
