Hi,
Just noticed that dashboard cards appear faded out if a filter is applied (some of these have defaults). If i delete the value in the filter, the card appears as normal. This started happening after I applied the 0.24 update (Docker). Any ideas?

I mentioned this in a different follow-up thread, but just in case someone's reading this thread, this is in fact intended, though admittedly confusing, behavior. You can comment on this here:

Currently when you apply a filter to a dashboard it will fade out all cards that… are not affected by that filter. I understand this behavior is about usability, so users can easily distinguish what data is being affected by the filter they applied. However, if you happen to have more than one filter and apply them all at once, the end result is that all cards get faded and the dashboard becomes hard to read.
As an example, I have the following dashboard where initially users set the Company ID filter. This fills the data for 3 cards and fades out the bottom left one (Prize Winners):

If users want more detail, they can pick the "ID" number from the top left card and insert it into the "Prize ID" filter. This fills the data for the bottom left card, but at the same time fades out the other 3 cards... resulting in a totally faded dashboard that is hard to read:

Maybe the frontend could not fade everything when more than 1 filter is applied?
I'm using 0.22 now but have been experiencing this since filters were introduced in an older release.
