title: Matrix Grouped Column issue: Columns are appearing with Gap in between
body: <p>I'm working on a Power BI paginated report.</p>
  <p>I have a Matrix with a column group. This Matrix has three parent groups. Grouped columns are dynamic as its number of columns can increase or decrease based on its parent groups. This Matrix is to be replicated for multiple times based on the items selected in the parameters.</p>
  <p>Now because based on parent groups all columns will not be a part of each replication on matrix.</p>
  <p>Example: Prt Group1 -- Prt group2-- Prt group3--Matrix with 3 columns,</p>
  <p>Prt Group1 -- Prt group2-- Prt group3--Matrix with 6 columns,</p>
  <p>Prt Group1 -- Prt group2-- Prt group3-- Matrix with 4 columns</p>

  <p>Now when data is displayed in report Columns are not staring from the 1st place from where column1 should started instead, if it is on the 5th place or as per the auto sort; is starting from nth place having first few column space as blank. These few blank space are left because in same report's another set of matrix replication will have those few columns which are not part of first matrix replication. Similarly in each set of data displayed in the matrix columns are getting spread out.</p>
  <p>Ex:</p>
  <p>Parent group 1</p>
  <p>Parent group 2</p>
  <p>Parent group 3</p>
  <p>(Set 1) Metrix Data: Gap Gap Column1 Column2 Column3 Column4 Column5
  data    data     data    data     data</p>
  <p>Parent group 1</p>
  <p>Parent group 2</p>
  <p>Parent group 3</p>
  <p>(Set 2) Metrix Data: Column1 Column2 Gap Gap Gap Column3 Column4 Column5 Column6 Column7
  data    data                data     data    data   data     data</p>
  <p>I would like to know how to start each column from its first place in each set with out any gap.</p>
  <p>Please suggest can this be achieved in Power BI paginated report?</p>
  <p>Thank you for time.</p>
