GitHub user swathimudda created a discussion: Ensuring Consistent Timezone Display Between Data and Filters
Hello Superset Community, I wanted to start a discussion about improving the consistency of timezone information displayed between data and filters in Apache Superset. ### Context: Currently, Superset provides a feature to offset hours on datasets, allowing users to display time in their timezone of choice. However, this adjustment is not reflected in the data for charts, which can make it unclear due to the lack of visible timezone information. This inconsistency can lead to confusion when interpreting time-based data, especially in scenarios where dashboards are shared across teams in different timezones. In [this discussion](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/33877#discussioncomment-13731389), the idea of adding a timezone selector was suggested. Building on that, I believe it’s essential to not only provide timezone selection capabilities but also ensure that timezone information is displayed consistently between data and filters. ### Potential Improvements: - Display timezone information alongside time filters in dashboards and chart controls. - Include timezone metadata in tooltips, legends, or headers of time-based visualizations. - Ensure timezone information is consistent between the data source and the applied filters. ### Benefits: - Reduces ambiguity when analyzing time-based data. - Improves collaboration for teams working across multiple timezones. - Enhances the overall user experience by providing clear timezone context. I’d love to hear the community’s thoughts on this topic. Are there any existing solutions or challenges that should be considered? Looking forward to your feedback!
