Product suggestion..
Within Metrics and Data - Data Sources
I think it would help to move 'Dimension Columns' from the advanced options of 'Edit Query' and in to 'Configure Dimensions'
I had an issue with my dimensions so spent a while poking around the 'Configure Dimensions' section, and indeed the 'Edit Query' section, but would never have thought that dimensions lived within the 'advanced' section of 'edit query', given there's a whole modal about 'Configure Dimensions'.
The 'advanced' section isn't mentioned in
this documentation either.
Evidently I resolved it, so its not a big issue, but thought I'd mention.
Hope that makes sense/helps.
