Adding variables for columns in a simple list data visualization

[User147276]

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 am facing the same issue and it is a pity a simple list view with catalog item variables cannot be created without workarounds. There must be a fix!?

Same issue here.  Commenting to raise visibility.

Also, type the catalog item name in the Search box and just the variables for that catalog item are visible.
