For the love of God, make the filter panel easier to find & expand

When viewing a dashboard and the filter panel is collapsed, it is near impossible for a new user to find the filter panel expand button. WHY IS IT SO SMALL?? 

Please update the UI so the filter panel is more intuitive to find and expand. A key feature like this shouldn't require digging through documentation on Sisense's website to figure out how to locate it.

  • I completely agree Clare, our stakeholders have great difficulty findings these arrow buttons. 

    Great if they could be set to a contrasting color. - D

  • Yes!  Needs to be larger and a darker color.  People just can't find it.

    Same thing for the windowpane expander on the left side.

  • After getting another internal support call on this today (it averages one every couple of weeks):

    For the love of god, man, and all that is holy, please get this into the next release.  It would take you like 10 minutes of coding effort to made the icon a bit bigger and give it a dark border around the handle.

  • We use Sisense externally for our clients to consume and its embarrassing to have to explain where the filters went and the tiny arrow that no one can see. I get constant support calls from clients "not being able to filter anymore". Some dashboards I've even added a note on the right hand side of the dashboard that mentions the tiny light gray arrow to try and get ahead of it.

    The side panel indicators have adopted new, larger icons, along with a highlight animation presented when user is first introduced to a dashboard. These changes are included in version L2025.1 SP1.
