Hi Experts,
I have spent a fair amount of time in the last couple of days browsing through the posts, and this article on multi-lingual support.
I started thinking about the embedded dashboard approach and as I started creating the parameters for each case (Sheet title, visual title etc) I already crossed some 50/60 parameters and still just 20% of work done. I am sure I would hit a limit that a URL can hold. It does not look like a viable/maintainable solution.
One big gap I see is that the titles support Parameters, but not calculated fields. As I think about this it appears the reason for not allowing calculated fields could be related to the fact that the calculated fields are linked to a dataset.
Can we introduce a new class of calculated fields that live in the analysis/dashboard world alone and have nothing to do with the datasets. They can use parameter control values to produce dynamic content.
With this segregation it should be possible to allow this class of Calculated fields to be allowed for use in the Titles of sheet, visuals etc.
I believe this will go a long way in solving the problem of multi-lingual support and any other creative ways the titles should be formed.
Looping the experts to opine and mark this as a feature request that may need to be put on priority as it not been properly addressed for a long time
