Hi,

I have found this feature [https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/8181](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/pull/8181) really necessary for me. Is it the way, how to apply it in dashboard in 6.0 version?  
I have trying to you use filters on different visualisations and want other visualisations not to disappear if the dont have the corresponding fields.

thanks.

UPD. Sorry, i have found courier:ignoreFilterIfFieldNotInIndex - true in advanced settings that solved my problem
