Title: Is there a way to disable the "Recommended Visualizations" when Changing Viz's?
Post by: rockytopmark on 15 Aug 2019 02:35:08 PM
When in either mode (Run or Edit) in Dashboards, there is Change Visualization function, that when clicked, produces (very slowly) as list of recommended visualizations.  I am hoping to be able to disable this feature.

Thanks in advanced, Mark

Hi Mark,

I very much doubt it. The viz recommender is one of the AI pieces IBM baked in, and I would be amazed if there was a way to switch it off.

Possibly a more important consideration is why it works slowly for you? I don't see any discernible lag when I use it. What browser and version are you using, and what spec is your client machine?

MF.

We are running Dashboards in CA 11.1.1 against PA reporting cubes.  Our team has Chrome and IE with Chrome being our preference, and our laptops are Dell i5-6300U @2.4 Ghz based ultrabooks with 8 GB ram... pretty solid machines.

When we initiate Change Visualization, we get the spinning circle for 5 to 7 seconds before the recommended visualizations show up.  Its slow for everyone.

We have heard that AI against PA Cubes isn't all that great or even recommended...
