How do you hide panels which do not have values?

Hello All,

Splunk Version : 6.6.2

Message showing on specific panel : No results found

I have a dynamic drop-down and if I select a value that doesn't generate any results for specific panels, I want to hide panels that don't have results.

I have seen so many answers available on Splunk answers but no one is working for me.

Thank you so much !

add depends token to panel and it will get set if result is found and if no result is found then it will hide panel.
add tag in your query like below

<panel depends="$panel_show$">
       <chart>
         <title>Internal sourcetypes over the last 5 seconds</title>
         <search id="your_search">
           <query>YOUR QUERY</query>
           <earliest>-5s@s</earliest>
           <latest>now</latest>   
       <progress>
            <condition match="'job.resultCount' > 0">
                <set token="panel_show">true</set>
            </condition>
            <condition>
                <unset token="panel_show"/>
            </condition>
        </progress> 
         </search>

Hello Friend,

I have seen one problem here. There are 3 panels in one row, If data is not available in 2nd and 3rd panel then it hide both the panels.
But when data not available in all the 3 panels then again message is showing as "No results founds" for each 3 panels.
I have given 3 different token names in panel tags like depends="$panel_show1$",depends="$panel_show2$", depends="$panel_show3$" and made other required changes.

Hope you understand my point. I will be needed your help to resolve this
