Column still visible if property changed to hidden

Dear GoogleCloudCommunity

For the Looker Dashboard, i just noticed, that changing property to Hidden actually did not make an effect on the dashboard/current property. The Property was still shown (but indeed i could not find it in the list of view/properties).

In general, i followed this guide how to change format of the date. And was expecting that the old column would dissappear and I would have to add a newly created column with format i want. But old column (with Hidden property) is still shown.
https://cloud.google.com/looker/docs/best-practices/how-to-use-liquid-to-format-dates

Is it expected behaviour or should be reported as a Bug?

Cheers,
Sergey

@sergey_b You have to manually hide the column in the explore to have it hide on the dashboard - The hidden property only hides the column on the field picker in the explore menu.
