RE: Disable table column header sorting

While I've found that PowerBI is a very powerful tool that´s leaping forward towards being the N°1 reporting tool, developers still have to keep in mind that the final user *can barely* use PowerPoint (don´t get me started with Excel), and final reports need to be babyproofed.

Allowing to report static visuals is extremely useful with the mitten-hands-end-user (we all know people like that) and this request can be extended to every visual.

RE: Disable table column header sorting

I would love to use this when showing Top N, I can sort by the value, and prevent others from sorting.

RE: Disable table column header sorting

This would help me a great deal, I field a lot of questions from less technical users about why months are in a random order, when they've applied a sort in a previous session
