### Known limitations
53+
54+
Dashboard version history only tracks changes to the dashboard itself (layout, filters, tile positions). Chart changes are not recorded as separate dashboard versions — when you roll back, chart versions are restored based on the **timestamp** of the dashboard version you select.
55+
56+
This means you can't selectively revert a single change. For example, if you:
57+
58+
1. Create a dashboard.
59+
2. Add a chart (bar chart).
60+
3. Edit the chart to be a line chart.
61+
4. Add a filter to the dashboard.
62+
63+
Rolling back step 4 from the dashboard version history will also revert step 3, because both chart versions are tied to dashboard version timestamps and only steps 1 and 2 exist as dashboard versions.
64+
65+
For more granular control over chart changes, use the chart's own version history instead.
