Maintain Application integrity
Deleting table items may cause references to be broken. In this case a Ghost item will be created to maintain application integrity until the developer can resolve the broken references.
A Ghost can be recognized by the following icon:
In this guide a ghost of an attribute is used as example. Ghosts of filters, selectors, metrics, and actions can also exist.
Normally, you should try to avoid causing ghosts.
Deleting the expression attribute that is used in a dashboard will lead to a broken reference. A Ghost item will be created to maintain application integrity.
In the lower left-hand corner of the application the Tools panel shows that there is a problem in the application. The ghost will be displayed in the Errors tab of the Tools panel. See illustration below.
See illustration below.
Ghost items must not be deleted while there are still references to it from the application. To remove a ghost, you must first replace all references to it.
Never attempt to delete a ghost while there are still references to it!
Doing so may irreparably break your application.
Follow this step to see all active references to a ghost attribute.
