Can you advise on the following please.
Scenario: An Advanced list has 1 field in the list view (Company) and the same field in a header row so a user can filter from the header row.
- When the app launches, the Company is defaulted from the User Override Settings (via App Setting). Common context does not seem to get set unless the record is 1) filtered on or 2) a record in the list is double clicked on. Is there a way to have common context set when the app launches and the Company is set from the User Override Settings i.e. no filtering/double clicking required?
- When one double clicks in one of the rows, is it possible to have common context set (this does appear to happen) and the list filters on the record double clicked on?
For the first question, there looks to be a bit of a gap in comparison to a detail form where your set up would publish on a detail for (like a filter card on a dashboard is a pretty common on used). So probably something that could be worked on but there isn’t a configuration right now to get that working.
For the second question, common conext already fires on double-click. Getting the list to also filter itself is configurable — a CC subscriber mapping onto a header field becomes a filter, so an app that both publishes and subscribes to the same field/scope closes the loop. I would just be careful on the user experience for this guy and make sure you aren’t getting yourself into an accidental common context loop of some kind.
@joeyates23 Thanks for the info.
