# ix. No Data

The **No Data** setting in Super Filter controls whether filter values are displayed by default or only after a user makes a selection. This feature is designed to improve visual clarity, enhance user focus, and optimize performance especially in scenarios where filters are intended to guide the user’s interaction before displaying data.

#### Configuration Steps

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Open the **Format Pane** for the Super Filter visual.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Locate the **No Data** option under the relevant configuration section.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Enable the toggle to activate the feature.

* When **disabled** (default), the filter visual displays all available items even if no selection is made.
* When **enabled**, the visual remains empty until the user selects a filter value. No data will be shown initially.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}
This option is supported across **all filter types**, including Hierarchy, Facet, Date, and Measure filters.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
