Interactive Dashboard - Details view

[AlexM]

Hi all,

If a solution was given before, I apologies, I haven't seen it.

When no record is selected in a table view, the details view will show by default the details for the first row instead of being blank or show "No items selected".

I have managed to find a walk-around. I don't know why it works, but it works.

• I have created a duplicate detail view
• added both in the dashboard
• set the show if to a condition that would not validate  | eg.: CONTEXT("view")="Do not show"

I hope it helps!

So you have 1 table view, and 2 detail views in your interactive dashboard? And which one did you put the show_if on?

Are the table and detail views set on different slices of the same table? That's the most frequent cause of the issue you mentioned that I've seen. If that's unavoidable, you can create a default/blank record at the top of the table that will display until another record is clicked.

1 table view and 2 detail view on the same table. No slice involved.

What I never liked is that the detail view always showed the first row if there wasn't any selection in the table view.

Having 2 detail views on the same table seems to show only selected records and nothing otherwise. Happy days!

I thought I would share this with the community 

(having a blank first record seems so easy and simple, still never crossed my mind. NICE!)
