Hi all, I cannot manage to have the following project run correctly: one of my views (_MeterView_) has an `EmbeddedView` whose `path` property is dinamically bound to a parameter coming from the URL (e.g. `/meters/temperature` should load my _MeterView_, loading the _Temperature_ view in the `EmbeddedView` component - the URL in the _Page Configuration_ is defined as `/meters/:sensor` and `sensor` is a `param` of the _MeterView_). I use a `MenuTree` to load my views, hard-coding the URLs in the `target` property. The behavior is as follows:

- click an item in the MenuTree: the _MeterView_ loads, showing the _View not Found_ scaring message
- if I press _F5_ in the browser and force a reload of the URL which was set by the MenuTree item, the _MeterView_ loads as expected with the correct sensor view.

I tried to add `time.sleep(..)` here and there, thinking that as soon as the main view is shown, URL parameters are not parsed/ready yet, but with no success.  
Any idea?

Thanks in advance

Ignition version: 8.1.31

Try to change to loading mode of the embedded view to `after parent` or whatever it's called.

Thanks @pascal.fragnoud . I'm quite sure I did it already, but next week I'll be by the customer and I'll give it a try.

Could you show the binding in place on the view path of the Embedded View?

Hi, I finally found the solution: the hard coded target URL is a concatenation of text fields coming from a database query, which I execute to build the MenuTree dinamically. I had to `trim()` those text fields to get the `target` property running - even if those text fields have no spaces around them.
