Version 8.1.25 and Vision

The question is if I have a power table, can I bind the visibility of something like a label that says 'Filters Active' whenever a power table in my window has a filter on. The only way I could think of would be a comparison of the table data and viewDataset properties to imply a filter is on if they aren't equal but this would also go true if the table was being sorted as well.

You could bind to something like this

`len({Root Container.Power Table.data}) > len({Root Container.Power Table.viewDataset})`
