Can we add one of the calculated metrics as the control field?

I want to add calculated metrics to be used as filters/controls but it doesn't allow. However, all the other metrics can be added. Does Looker Studio not allow or I'm misconfiguring?

Hi @ZikraM, thanks for your post!

You should be able to use the calculated field as a filter, if you create it on the actual data source (and not from the chart settings). There's more information about how to do this on the About calculated fields documentation page.
