For Local Data filters, the Select option is missing:

Is the absence of Select mode a fundamental necessity for Jmp to work - or is it just like @ian_jmp guesses:
https://community.jmp.com/t5/Discussions/Collection-of-quot-funny-quot-JSL-newbie-questions/m-p/580295/highlight/true#M78738
~ It's removed because otherwise the user could be confused by the too many possibilities/too much functionality.
I understand that not every user needs a Select option in a local data filter.
But on the other hand - with the "select" option enabled, this would be a ultra-fast way to generate a "mini"-Dashboard - the most flexible one that you can imagine: just add another variable to the data filter - and use it in your "Dashboard"!
The Enhanced Sankey Plot Add-In is a great example:

@jthi had to use a global data filter to provide the functionality (with all disadvantages of a global data filter!).
The additional benefit:
If you just have a GraphBuilder report open, you can enable/disable "Dashboard" mode with a single click on the LocalDataFilter Icon on the Report Toolbar.
Cool, right?
So here is my Wish:
Please >don't< disable select mode for Local Data Filters.
