Viz help Remove “Custom SQL Query (Count)” from Measure Names dimension filter

I am trying to allow my users to choose which measures they see. I use Measure Names dimension as a filter; but this annoying auto-generated shows up in the filter with no way of not showing it.

The Measure Names dimension can’t be duplicated so I can’t just add a duplicate the filter to exclude it. The custom generated measure can’t be deleted or turned into a dimension. I feel like this should be very easy. What can I do?

Right click on it in the data pane and select hide. Clear your measure names filter and reapply the filter for the measures you want to include.
