I have experienced so many strange and inconsistent behaviors in trying to set up dashboard filters. And they are not always reproducible.
I opened a support ticket where I had some widgets built off the Company object that would work on dashboard but not another. And support couldn't figure out the issue. I had to delete the dashboard filters and start over.
Now I'm running into an issue where I deleted a dashboard filter (because of similar weirdness). I saved the layout. But it somehow things the filter is still in use because when I try to recreate it, it won't save the filter because it wants me to change the name:
But there is no other filter in use on this dashboard. HOWEVER - you can see an empty filter bar at the top of the screen (which does not go away no matter how many times I save the dashboard):
Other dashboards which don't have a global filter do not show an empty filter bar:
It's like the first dashboard has a "phantom filter." This is super frustrating because I guess I'm going to have to delete the whole dashboard that is giving me trouble and build it again.
Anyone else have inconsistent experiences with dashboard filters?

Hey Jeff - definitely let's get a support ticket on the issues you're seeing here as it appears to be bug related (they will be able to determine for sure). Sorry for the inconvenience you're experiencing.
Unfortunately I had to just push forward, delete the dashboard and start over. If it happens again I'll open a ticket.
