Hi guys, I'm actually facing one issue in my dashboard. Whenever I apply filters through controls visualization, if I select any item for which data is not present then visualizations just say 'no result found' or in case of multiple list items, it just ignores the ones for which we don't have any data, it just visualizes the ones for which we have data in the index. I want to display an error message/popup to inform the user about the unavailability of data. Is it possible? If yes, then how can I do this? Thanks in advance! ---
