Hello, I am working on basic report development changing filters etc. Everytime I change a filter my report is prompting me to refresh for each specific visual with the information that "visual has pending changes." How do I turn this setting off?
I just had the same issue
Go to the Optimize Ribbon and check the Pause visuals button. You may have paused the visuals being refreshed (that is what i did) you need to unselect that and the visuals will refresh automatically
