When a column which is in a pivot position is also selected as a sort column, but not a visible column, using the default aggregate (
count
orsum
) will appear to arbitrarily re-order the pivot axis, since this aggregate value is not visible but the pivot value in the row or column header is. Because of this, we always useunique
as an aggregate when this condition is detected. However, this check previously only checked that such a column was in any pivot position, when really it should only apply to pivots on the same axis as the sort (e.g. row pivots with a hidden sort, or column pivots with a hidden column sort). This PR addresses this issue and adds a test for the case.
