Currently, there is no easy way to determine where a calculated field is used, or if a calculated field is not used at all. For larger complex dashboards and analyses, there’s often multiple versions of calculated fields created during development and iterations, but eventually some of the earlier ones no longer are used. It would be great to have a feature where you could quickly see which fields are used in any view, or other calculated fields, as well as any which are unused entirely. This would enable easier cleanup of older analyses or dashboards, as well as easier maintenance of ones which you were not the original author.
