The GIS UI does not allow for filtering specific indicators by data dimensions. E.g. if you added an attribute for funder as a data dimension it is available as a filter in Pivot table and Data Visualiser but in GIS there is no such filters. I can understand that GIS would be limited to selecting one attribute as a filter similar to how you can only select one indicator per layer but this would be a nice feature to have because without it GIS becomes not usable for scenarios where you use attributes.
Would it be possible to consider this so that I can add a Jira issue for it?
Use case:
I would like to map an indicator e.g Cost per unit by different Principle recipients of a specific grant (Attributes) and would create e.g. 3 layers one for each Principle Recipient but to do this I need to be able to filter the indicator on each layer for one of those Principle recipients (Attributes).
