Exclude visual elements

Procedures

Exclude a data element from a visual

  1. Click the element (for example, a bar or column header).
  2. Select Exclude from the drop-down list. The visual updates, and Insights creates a filter that removes only the data you selected.

Remove the filter

  • In the Filters panel, click the three dots next to the filter name and select Disable or Delete from the drop-down list.
  • If adding the filter was the most recent action you did, you can also click Undo to remove the filter.
