Hi

You have two dimensions right, Change to custom mode and give sorting based on your dimension.

Hi,

I changed into custom mode and applied the expression. However, the second dimension is having nulls. I am thinking that might be the reason where i am not able to sort properly.

Thanks,

How you want to display?

By Total Population?
