I have made a dashboard with a panel card grid pulls the data i want from a baq perfectly fine!
I then have another which filters another BAQ based on selection from the first…again working fine!
Next i have a text area box which displays the comments based on what is selected in the first panel card grid…and again it works…so far so good!
Now i want to replicate this exact functionality based on other BAQs, getting the two panel card grids to display the data and filter based on the other is fine, however i cant get the comments bit to do its thing!
Checked all the settings of the text area, the container, the grid its contained in and there are no special settings in the original dashboard i built so if i am being completely honest, i have absolutely no idea how its working…but it is.
This original dashboard is one built from scratch in app studio too, not a conversion so its not like a dark magic thing that the conversion workbench has done
So… if I read this correctly… the 2nd grid doesn’t really come into play here, correct? Your text area is being populated based on your selection in the first grid?
Is your comment box being populated from data that is being returned by the BAQ? or is it using a BAQ column value to then perform a rest call to get and display data from a different source?
Are you using an event so when the user changes row in the grid, it repopulates the comment box?
For the purpose of the comment box, you would be correct, the 2nd does not come in to play and yes the text area is being populated by the selection in the 1st and the comment is coming from the same BAQ as it is in the 1st dashboard.
No events etc i literally have the epi-binding field populated and it somehow just works in the 1st dashboard but not in the 2nd
So, i guess my queation would be (not being familiar with your dashboards and data)… how does the comment box know which row of data to display?
Don’t get me wrong… if the grid populates, the data is being called… so, i agree something should populate. Typically the first row would be the selected row by default (i think).
Are you using a dataview to store the BAQ response?
i have been through EVERY setting relating to the panel cards, the text area etc, basically every component relating to those two areas and there is nothing that says when this changes do this sort of speak…nothing like a where list because there is not anywhere to do such a thing
i found my issue…eventually, i have been working on other things but the issue was the comments field was NOT inside the columns listed in the panel card grid i was filtering from…annoying because i KNOW this needs to be there, just a massive oversight on my part!
