Note: The above option is applicable for calculated column(s) too.

Note: To add a filter for a specific column in the currently open analysis, open the "Data in Analysis" flyout, launched from the panel on the left side of the Analyst window > select the column of interest > click on the "Show Filter" icon > "Click to create a filter"
