This needs to be built into the UX to avoid frustrations for the end users. Its essential to keep the selections after repivoting.
Without this functionality it becomes frustrating and users stop using UX and revert back to old dashboards (where the functionality exits). Thus it becomes difficult to get UX buy in
This is quiet annoying that this feature is not there. It will be a great time savior especially for personal page builders since they are literally missing time again and again trying to find the best pivot for their needs and using show/hide option each time.
This is one of the disadvantages of New UX against Classic UX. I think that it sounds logically that in New UX the things should be better or at least the same as in Classic UX. This is terrible that we have such ability in Classic UX but don't have it in New UX.
How do you mean? Show/hide settings stay also in NUX when pivoting on worksheets. This applies though only for items visible on the grid and not for context selectors (as in classic UX). However, most end-users won't notice this.
Unfortunately, it is still missing when creating a worksheet / board. In this case, I fully agree that this should be in place after 2 years with NUX.
We do only have a problem when we place the line items in context selectors from rows/columns and vice versa. We have a model which we are transferring from Classic to NUX. And the users are really used to pivoting the grids in all ways possible. So, we have to enable them to pivot the grids with no issue. We have to create workarounds for users to manipulate information in the most efficient way, and in this this model it often includes pivoting for data comparison.
So, yeah, we need the show/hide setting to be in place when putting line items from rows/columns to context selectors.
