Dynamically selecting a view

When you have created multiple views for a Lightning Conductor Web Part, you can then connect another Web Part to the Lightning Conductor Web Part. When a user selects an item in the other Web Part, the view in the Lightning Conductor Web Part changes. Use the following steps to, create a Web Part connection solution between the Filter Web Part and the Lightning Conductor Web Part.

1. Create a Web Part page.
   
   
2. From the Site Actions menu, select Edit Page.
   
   
3. Add a filter Web Part, such as, the Text Box Filter Web Part.
   
   
4. Add a Lightning Conductor Web Part to the page, enable multiple views, create multiple views and configure the views.
   
   
5. From the Web Part menu of the Text Filter Web Part, select Edit Web Part.
   
   
6. Return to the Web Part menu of the filter Web Part and first select Connections > Send Filter Values To and then select the Lightning Conductor Web Part that you want to filter. NOTE: If you do not see the Connections menu option, ensure the previous step has been completed and the web part is in edit mode.
   
   
7. On the Choose Connections dialog box, select Get View From and then click Configure.
   
   
8. Select View Title or View ID depending on whether you are passing the name of the view or the numerical value (index) of the view.
   
   
9. Click Finish.
   
   
10. Save the page.
    
    
11. Users can now check the view in the Lightning Conductor Web Part, using the filter Web Part.
