Description
In histogram view, all data is displayed. This displays a lot of unnecessary information, and when a user wants to easily see what is in that bucket of the histogram there are many values where count = 0.
If there is a use case where someone would want to see fields that have a count = 0, can have an on/off option in the configuration settings


Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the histogram view and its configuration settings, then trace how legend entries are assembled. Done means an option can hide entries with count = 0 while preserving the current display when enabled; verify both states with the histogram examples or relevant UI checks.
