Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I am starting to have a lot of filters in my dashboard and they use around 30% of the screen, especially now that they are locked in the top.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be really nice to have a button or function to collapse the filters or move them in the layout of the dashboard. We can collapse them and show only the applied ones

How important is this feature to you?
I think it will improve a lot the visualization, especially in the embedded dashboards

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the dashboard filter UI and clarifying whether the change should support collapsing filters, moving them in the layout, or both; done should preserve access to applied filters while reducing their screen space, especially in embedded dashboards.
