The new Filter Pane experience is really nice. However, the count numbers next to the selection boxes in the Basic drop downs can be confusing to users - they can have no relevance to what is showing on the page. Please add functionality to where these counts be toggled off!

RE: Toggle Counts on/off in Filter Pane

Count on filters gives irrelevant figures and it is giving no values to end customers. There should be some option to hide the counts.
Other way arround for not showing count , i thing we can create slicer pan Instead of using the filters.

RE: Toggle Counts on/off in Filter Pane

The count numbers is definitely something that needs to be removed from the filters. It can be very confusing to Users plus it makes you question and hope other areas are not included. To avoid confusion to the User it would help if this was removed - Thank you.

RE: Toggle Counts on/off in Filter Pane

This is creating a distraction to our users and is not of any use
Would definitely like the option to hide it
or just remove it with no option

RE: Toggle Counts on/off in Filter Pane

Agree. Users are confused from that number and its irrelevant. Please give action to hide or update the slicers to not show it at all.

RE: Toggle Counts on/off in Filter Pane

Really need this implemented per all of the comments below, just started to deploy new dashboards and a handful of users have asked the question confused about the counts making no sense due to modeling which is understandable
