Dashboard refreshes all no matter what

I stand corrected. I just did a test on a dashboard with two totally unrelated queries and they both refreshed when I hit the refresh button. In my quick and simple test it didn't seem to matter how I had them stacked or displayed. I am almost certain that this wasn't always the case, but it appears to be the case now in 8.03.408.

Okay - your first comment makes sense, but not the second one. What I
found this morning with a new dashboard is as follows:

I added two queries that are not linked. I did not check the Refresh on
load for either query. When I refresh one query, the other refreshes as
well. And I find that this is happening on all of the dashboards that I
have made so far.

If you add a tracker that allows the user to filter the query, then not
having it do a refresh on load gives the user a chance to set up their
filter before they retrieve the data.

You may also have multiple queries which aren't linked. In this case,
the refresh button would only refresh the active query. You can also
opt to show a refresh all button which would refresh all queries even if
they are not linked.

I noticed that when I add a new query to a dashboard that it has the
option to refresh on load. I do not check the box.

Then when I first open the dashboard and refresh one of multiple
queries, they all refresh. So what is the point of the refresh on load
since they are all going to refresh as soon as you refresh one?

Am I missing something?

It all depends on how you 'stack' the queries in the dashboard panel.
If you have them side by side...it will refresh both.
If you have them stacked (top and bottom)...it will only refresh the one you are focused on.

Hope the helps.
