How to remove the white spaces in the matrix when filters applied

Hi team,

 

Could you please help how to remove the empty spaces in a mtarix when filter is applied when the matrix is set to certain height and width.

1. Matrix visual without any filters.

2. Matrix visual after applying the filters.

Here after applying the filters some white spaces are appearing in the matrix. Is there any way to remove this white space from the matrix. Thanks a lot!!!

HEllo @Usha_pk ,

 

the matrix size won't change upon filtering, it will stay like this as shown.

Hi @Usha_pk 
As @Idrissshatila  mentioned Matrix size is static it couldn't change based on values quantity.

If your goal is to save someplace on the dashboard you can design it in more "lean way" 
For example:

Hi @Usha_pk 

As @Ritaf1983 @Idrissshatila mentioned, we can not control the width of Matrix visual.
I have faced the same complaint from end users, why are 3 dots not showing in the proper place when they are using fewer columns?
So I always use SHADOW, (sometimes border) to avoid confusion.
