This is the first time I have used Amazon QuickSight to create a basic Dashboard. When I tried excluding elements from the visual, the filter pane pops up from the left side. Is it possible to prevent this pop-up?
When publishing the dashboard, you need to disable the option to Enable advanced filtering on the left pane. This should disable the filtering pane from showing up.
