Hello,

I am trying to create a client script that will change the view every minute.

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/9/4/94fe59dede8e35e8d9ef777016059e9579c2edc9.png)

I have the current code written out as a timer on a client event and I'd like to show BeltSanding view then the next minute show FinalMachining views on the screen.

![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/3/2/32636775e3ca3b7ce04133c3fe6abc95ad7da82a.png)

Is this possible?

Thanks

`swapTo` is for Vision not Perspective. For perspective, you would use [system.perspective.navigate()](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/system.perspective.navigate). You should check out the [carousel](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Perspective+-+Carousel) component for this.

Maybe something like this would work.

I wrote up a little example that adapts it to this use case. I set up two views, one as my landing page and one as the second page. [image] On the landing page, in the root container, I set up some custom props, redirect\_timer and redirect\_at [image] The top prop, redirect\_timer, is bound to the expression now(1000) to update once a second. If you want a more prec…

Your code is a client event script which is Vision only. The `system.nav.*` functions are also vision only. Since you've tagged this Perspective and are switching views they won't work for you.

@dkhayes117 beat me to it, but the link might still be useful.

Thanks All,

All this information helps a bunch and should be able to figure it out from here!
