When creating a simple list data visualization and I want to use variables from a catalog item for some of the columns, however the UI experience is terrible. I am hopeful that this is just a user error on my part.
I have created a simple list data vis on the sc_task table and clicked variables in the 'columns to add'.
When I click variables, I am presented with a list of EVERY variable in our catalog and cannot find a way to choose which specific catalog item that I want to select the variables from. (In legacy reports, we could write a query to only show the variables for a specific catalog item)
Hopefully this is user error on my part! Please advise

I can only think of a hack. Prefix your catalog item's Question field values with 'Aaaaaa' so that they show up right at the top of the UI... After selecting them on the UI, you can revert
