Hello Team,

I have a page with entity selectors, corresponding charts, and a data view. However, I need these selections to apply only to the charts, not to the data view grid. In other words, they should not sync with the grid. How can I implement this?

    Hi @Shobika ,

    in that case you would need to set up a layout selection for the dataview that includes all desired selections in a "To"-mode; that would override any selection on the screen.

  • Hi Helmut,

    Is there any tutorial about that topic? I don't understand the "To"-mode.

    Hi Helmut, Even if we use "To" mode in the layout selections it's not dynamic.

    What if new items are added to the list? Will I need to manually enable each new item?

    Thanks,

    Hi @Shobika ,

    yes, you're correct there—it is in no way dynamic, and if there are new members they will have to be added manually to the select. In that case I'd suggest to use a defining parent entity so that by selecting the parent you'll automatically get all relevant members, even if they are new.

    What other dynamics do you want to achieve?

    Best,
    Helmut
