LINKTOFILTEREDVIEW() - Display filter value in View heading

[Mike_T]

I’m using a Gallery view and Action to allow the user to select a subset of rows. Basically I have 6 categories of items in the gallery. User selects the row (or category) and is taken to a Deck view of all the items in this category. Works great so far!

How do I get the name of the Category to appear in the heading instead of the generic View name?

Could you please share a screenshot of what option it is exactly that you’re trying to change to the “name of the Category”?

The first View is a Deck view with a list of Categories:

When the user selects a Category the Action (LinkToFilteredView) takes them to the filtered list of items in this Category:

I would like for the name of the Category selected to appear at the top of the screen where the View Title appears.

I see. Thanks for sharing the screenshots. It appears that the header will default to whatever your current “View name” is. If you have a discrete view name, it exposes a “Display name” option under “Display” settings. My suggestion is that where you are currently showing the view “VIPAwards Prizes”, you use a formula in the “Display name” option that yields the current categories name if that makes sense.

Makes sense. I just need help with the formula to put into “Display Name”. I don’t think you can reference a column value so not sure how to make it dynamic.

Based on this post…

Dynamic Display Name in a Filtered View Questions

Assume an Order - Order Items kind of schema. Row selection on Orders table view invokes an action that opens the Order Items inline table view. This is done with a LINKTOFILTEREDVIEW, where the filter expression is Orders Items Order ID = Order ID. The question is whether it is possible to set the Display property of the Order Items inline table view to that of the Order ID. This way the users knows which order’s items they are currently viewing.

Doesn’t look like it is possible.

Ah, I see. was unaware that it won’t evaluate on the table. Sorry.
