Summary

Documents that hiding a dimension column in a pivot Table chart now preserves its role in sorting and row grouping, instead of dropping it from the query.

Changes

  • Added a "Hidden dimensions and sorting" subsection to the pivot tables reference page, explaining when to use it and how rendering, exports, and row grouping behave.

Context

Upstream PR lightdash/lightdash#23291 added support for hidden-but-sorting dimensions in pivot Table chart configuration. The underlying behavior is configured through the existing column visibility toggle in the chart configuration panel, so the only user-visible change is that hiding a dimension used in sorts no longer drops the sort.
