I have a feature request regarding filter inputs.
Current behavior:
1. Open a dashboard and add or edit a filter
2. Type a value into the filter input field
3. Click within the entered text to reposition the cursor
4. The input value is cleared
Desired behavior: Clicking within the filter input should move the cursor to the clicked position without clearing the existing value.
Currently, the only way to reposition the cursor is by using keyboard arrow keys, which makes editing filter values quite tedious — especially for long or complex values.
Would you consider looking into this?🙏
