How to remove Explore name prefix from dimension/measure names in Looker Studio Explorer?

Hello everyone,

I'm working with LookML and Looker Studio Explorer, but I'm running into an issue where my dimension names always appear with the Explore name as a prefix.

For example, in Looker Studio Explorer:

  • My Explore in LookML is called "Demand"
  • A dimension in my LookML view is called "Nbr of sales"
  • But in Looker Studio Explorer, it appears as:
    "Demand Nbr of sales" instead of just "Nbr of sales"

I want the dimensions to only show their field name, without the Explore name prefix.

What I have tried so far: 

- Setting label for each dimension → But the prefix still appears in Looker Studio Explorer.

  • How can I remove the Explore name prefix from dimension names in Looker Studio Explorer?
  • Is there a setting in Looker Studio or LookML that controls this behavior?
  • Has anyone else faced this issue, and if so, how did you resolve it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 

EDIT: Saw that there was a feature request here about the same issue: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/383013056 If anyone has found a workaround let me know.
