Delete or minimize visuals on visualization pane
To get more reall estate, I want to completely remove some visuals that I never use (like doughnut charts) from the visualization pane. Unpinning them doesn't work, it just moves them.
Alternatively, if there were a way to hide/unhide all the icons for visuals, that would be great.
Right now, even when you scroll down individualization pane to access other features, the icons for visuals don't move and just take up a huge amount of real estate especially if you have custom visuals added.
Hi JHARKNESS
It’s not possible to remove or rearrange core visuals from the visualization pane.
However, with the on-object interaction feature, visuals can now be added from a compact menu directly on the canvas — which takes up much less space and avoids the need to scroll through the full pane.

JHARKNESS It's one time process. You don't need to do for each and every report.

Hi JHARKNESS,
You can follow the below steps
1. Unpin the selected visual from the visualisation pane. I'm taking Py visual for reference.
2. Once it is unpinned from the visualisation pane, it looks like below
3. Then save the report and re-open it. The Py visual won't be available in the visualisation pane.
If you need deleted/hided visuals in future. Just click on the elipsis( ... ) in the visualisation pane and click on the Restore default visuals.
Thanks,

Thanks, this works, but it seems like you have to do it for each report.

There is no option to hide/delete standard visuals.
However, if you right click and unpin a visual then it reposistions it at the bottom (out of the way).
You can suggest and vote for a new function to hide/deletre standard visuals.
Sorry if this is not what you want but it is an answer.
