Change the default column ordering?

#1

Hi there,

When I create a question, the columns are ordered alphabetically. Is there a way to keep the original ordering of the column ?

I see that when I create a sql query through metabase, I do have the column in the original order, but not when I’m creating a new question.

Is it possible to change the default column ordering ?

Did you ever get an answer to this? I’m digging into the same thing

UIPDATE: found it!

  1. Open your question in edit mode
  2. Click on the gear icon to bring up the “Customize this Table” dialog
  3. In “customize this table”, you can drag the little “hamburger” icons on the left side of the dialog to re-order the columns

Thanks for the description, I’ve been trying to figure out what the hamburger icons are used for.
