I would like this filter drop-down to be sorted alphabetically. How do I do this? I have searched but cannot find any reference for this in your FAQs or support documents.
Sorry to disappoint you - at this time we can not make sorting logic for values that will be in a filter selection.

Like this,
open this column's settings, go to the Data tab. In there, change "Possible values for column" from "Read from table on page load" to "Define values list":
Then, in the "Values list", manually input the individual values in the order that should be sorted, and that is how they will appear in the filter.
; here is the resulting filter multiselectbox of this example:

Hi, Lisa
Sorry for the delay
- It seems that i am unable to see the image you have sent.
I tried two different browsers, and for some reason, i just got this strange blank image as i open it.
Could you perhaps record a short video of your screen, and share it with me - or try to send other screenshots,
and please elaborate a bit more - for example, what is the column type that you are trying to sort alphabetically ?
Thank you
Kind Regards,
