Not true. Drag the fields for their title to get the desire order.

Not true. It is for select the field's order not to sort the whole pt.

Or you don't want to understand/accept how it works, because it's not what you
like.

Yes their is no other way than to rearrange columns, and sort every field.

Sorting in the order col2-col3-col1, whit columns in pt positioned as
col1,col2,col3, at least looks a few awkward.

If the only sort available after the table is created is to the first column or
row then you should only show the sort option in the dropdown for the first row
or column. 

Additionally, you should remove the sort options from the data field options in
the pivot table layout dialog since it is "expected" that sorts are only
possible on the first row and/or column.

These two corrections would keep people from wasting time experimenting with 
presented options that are not intended to be functional.

It "worksforme" with YOU because you have rearranged the columns. The sample I
attached is in fact not the desired layout, but rather a workaround because
sorts are only possible on the first columns and/or rows. 

The desired table result is as shown in the additional attachment BUT SORTED BY
COLUMN TWO AND ROW TWO. The "Matrix to 3C" sheet is the copy, paste, sort, and
reformat that is required because of the sort limitation, so I'm well aware of
the problem and unfortunate workaround that you say "worksforme".

Anything less requires a "workaround" and unnecessary time spent. 

I sense that you won't acknowledge it as a "bug" so I'll change this report to
"VERIFIED", "WONTFIX".

Sample modified to show how to sort works.

Works for me.

But I think something is missing here.
If you want to sort by the third column, move it to be the first column.
Otherwise the sort in menu field, sort the field without change the order of
previous columns only sort if the field has several values for the field of
column before.

On your sample file modified, change the sort order of the second column, and
you can see how it works.

A pivot table in a spreadsheet (typical, I presume)
