Desktop Co-Authoring- Filters....

Hi when using co-authoring on the desktop client, if a user filters data, all editing are filtered as well. Is it possible to turn this off & remain in autosave to avoid conflictions?

    We have noticed the same thing on an Excel file shared from OneDrive.  As multiple users edit the workbook, if there is more than one user in the workbook then one user setting a filter (in a table) then that filter is applied to the other user.  So now we have to educate all users to NOT set a table filter if someone else is in the workbook.

     

    Thanks, Bruce...
