Databases Feature 'Custom View' (former Orderly)

Arno Dubois_qveoyt

Since Databases feature has taken over from Orderly, the Custom View option has disappeared / seems to not be available anymore. Anyone any experience with this or has a workaround (I can no longer set / change a default view).

Hellou there @Arno Dubois,

I think I get what you mean. In the past, you could set a "pin" in both: the database itself (Databases area) and the Database Macro (when nested on a page).

Since this is no longer possible, we became sad , but found a silly workaround.

When you set a new default view in the DB and place a new Macro, the macro will show that view.
If you switch the default view in the DB, the original macro will still retain the initial view set above.
Thus, placing a new macro will show the new view.
Repeat ???
Profit

So basically, you can spend time updating the view and placing a new macro xD following this silly guide.

Hope this helps and my beautiful drawings make sense.

Best,
Rodrigo

Hi Arno,

I can see that there is an option to create a new view and also to 'pin'/change the default view out of existing database views (navigated to Databases > *selected database)

Could you try this out?

Best regards,
Tom

Hi Tom,

Thanks for reply, I am aware and was trying this, however as per below, the pin option does not show for some reason ..

Ah! And to answer your question, you can still set a default view via the Databases entry on the side.

Amazing Rodrigo! That is exactly what I was after, tested and proven to work as expected. Thank you very much.
