Filtering by Dropdown: Include blanks with "Does not have this option selected"
Filtering based on drop-downs works well for the most part, but I keep coming into issues with this.
Currently, when filtering "{Dropdown} does have this option selected [dropdown option]", it only pulls through records where the dropdown isn't blank and has a different option than the one mentioned in the filter.
This forces the user to create a conditional group, where the option isn't selected OR the field is blank.
This isn't a big deal, until you start working with more complex filters with different conditional groups.
Really loved how this was done in Classic; with the ability to check "is/isn't any of these options", and would let blanks slide through.
Thanks!

Hello,
You are correct, the underlying filtering logic is one of the larger differences between our Classic and New platforms, and that is an enhancement request that we have received in the past. I have logged your comments on that request, and if you would like to reach out to support with your identity we would be happy to keep you in the loop with any changes to that functionality.
Regards,
Witte
