About Automatically Applied Filters

By default, filters are automatically applied. However, you use Auto-Apply Filters options to turn this behavior off if you want to manually apply the filters.

To display the Auto-Apply Filters options, click Filter Bar Menu icon (), then click Auto-Apply Filters. When the Auto-Apply Filters is turned on, the selections you make in the filter bar or filter drop target are immediately applied to the visualizations.

When Auto-Apply Filters is turned off, the selections you make in the filter bar or filter drop target aren’t applied to the canvas until you click the Apply button in a filter panel.
