Showing blanks as zero in widgets

Aggregation Methods

For Count and Count Distinct aggregation methods, Null values are not considered. 

Consider the following example.


In the above example, we plot a line chart of Salary against Region. By default, Show Blank as zero is enabled. Since there are null values for Salary in the East Region, these null values are represented as 0.
If we turn off the show blank as zero toggle button, the chart will change to the following result.


Here, since there is no salary for the East region, nothing is plotted for the East Region.

In Filter widget, the null values are represented by <BLANK>. if we apply filter on numerical column we will exclude nan from It and only consider given range by filter.
