I typically build up visuals, create visual level filters, then add additional visuals to a report. After creating the filters at the visual level, I realize that I would like to apply them more broadly to the page level (or report level). I would like to be able to drag and drop them onto the page level or report level filters instead of recreating them. We are used to this functionality with the drag and drop interaction with fields and visuals properties. Let's extend this to the filters as well.

This would save a lot of time.Especially with filter lists with 60+ items

The inability do drag a filter between areas but you can build the exact same one frustrating. It would be such a time saver to be able to drag the filer from page level to visual level.

This would an incredibly useful functionality. So much time is wasted recreating filters. There are times where I create a report and use a report level filter for ease. Then I am asked to expand my data and produce variances to look at. Have to delete the filter and redo it manually on all pages is so time-consuming.

It doesn't really make sense to have a drag and drop feature that only works in one direction. This would save time, eliminate errors, and be all-around amazing. Please consider making this happen!

Very much needed - a lot of time is wasted recreating filters

YES AGREE with Jesper, this is critical in terms of being able to use the new filter pane easily.

This has become even more important with the new Filter pane!

'+1 My use case is similar, but the opposite. I begin building a report and establish several "Report Level Filters". I publish the report and people love it. I then get asked to expand my analysis by adding a new tab with different reports, and they require different filtering.

I wolud like to be able to drag the established "Report Level Filters" to "Page Level Filters" so I don't have to manually rebuild them from scratch.
