How to create a filter within a widget?
Summary: Rafael Ferreira was seeking a solution for creating a filter within a widget. They later found a solution using a guide and shared the link to it. Liliia Kislitsyna suggested using Blox to create buttons with filters instead of a dropdown, referencing another guide for this approach.
I know there are ways of creating custom filters with BloX, where we can pinpoint to a widget we want to affect but is there any solutions out there to have a filter WITHIN a widget?
I provided some images of what I want to achieve.

It might be possible to use Blox to create buttons with filters instead of the drop-down like in this guide: https://community.sisense.com/forum/blox-30/topic/changing-measures-in-the-entire-dashboard-using-blox-user-interface-4679
It's changing values but I believe that similar logic could be used for your case. Anyway it will be still a separate widget.

I do not know if this is possible with Blox. I am not a Blox Expert :) We use the Advanced Filters plugin from Ravid_PaldiTeam / Benji_PaldiTeam which does exactly this:

They have a free trial and Ravid/Benji are always happy to help.
