RE: Disable table column header sorting
It's been 6 years, how is this still not an option? It seems relatively simple since we can already sort on one or more columns, why not have an option to disable sorting also? Thank you!

This goes for the matrix visual, as well!
RE: Disable table column header sorting
Not just in a dashboard, but also in reports. The designer should be able to setup the visual so as to disable the sorting by column

We do work for the government with specific legal requirements and this functionality will get Power Bi removed as the analytics tool of choice. It is a basic functionality and it is jeopardising the future of the product in this entire sector.

Doing work around to add a blanket over the sort button is not ideal solution.
Being able to choose whether to have on or off should be a basic feature.

RE: Disable table column header sorting
Insert a box in front of the visual(s). Make the box invisible - zero width line and no fill.
In order to hide the sorting arrows I place another small box on top with the same color as the column header.
This is a workaround until that option becomes properly available.

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.
