Hiding a visual by default
In the Interactions pane of the Properties pane, you can choose to hide a visual by default. Doing this can be useful if you want the viewer to only see visuals based on specific conditions.

To hide a visual by default
-
From the QuickStart start page, choose Analyses, and then choose the analysis that you want to customize.
-
Choose the visual that you want to add a rule to.
-
On the menu in the upper-right hand side of the visual, choose Properties.
-
In the Properties pane that opens, choose Interactions and open the Rules dropdown.
-
In the Rules menu, choose Hide this visual by default.
Hidden visuals appear fully hidden in a viewing dashboard. In the Analyses pane, hidden visuals are visible with the message “Hidden based on rule”. With this display, you can see where all of a dashboard's visuals are located.
Note
You can't create conditional rules that hide visuals that are already hidden by default or that show visuals that already appear by default. If you change the default appearance of a visual, existing rules that contradict the new default appearance will be disabled.
