ArcGIS Dashboards- Sidebar Issue- Description Text Removes Filters

Hello Dashboard Team, 

We recently ran into an issue with the sidebar widget in ArcGIS Dashboards.

When the a lengthy amount of description text is added, the predefined filters dissapper. 

Here are the filters we have: 

 

but when this text is added, the filters disappear (see red line):

 

Once the text has been added there is no way to edit or manage these filters either, even when clicking on them from the side panel: 

 

Please advise, thanks so much

---UPDATE---

After a little more digging it appears the Description portion of the sidebar window squishes out the filter section in the backend code. The Filter's scrollbar area also disappears. I believe this issue could be resolved if both the Description section and the Filter sections of the Sidebar had their own scrollbars.

Hello @Amanda__Huber!

I regularly need lots of space for text in my dashboards, so I understand your pain! As long as there are only a couple filters, you can move them to the header and use the sidebar solely for text, like this:

 

Hope this helps!
