I'm working with a table component, and the project requires creating a subview dependent on each row. However, when selecting the subview, the row isn't selected, so my parameter is giving me incorrect information.

The parameter I created for the subview has to work independently for each row. As you can see, I have to select the first row and then the subview to get the correct data for that row. I want to skip that step so that selecting the subview is easier and the required row is automatically selected. Any ideas?  
Pd: The subview only works by showing me a parameter to tell me which part the information comes from, nothing else.

When you expand the subview the whole row is automatically passed as `value` to the subview as a parameter. [Displaying a Subview in a Table Row | Ignition User Manual](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/appendix/components/perspective-components/perspective-display-palette/perspective-table/displaying-a-subview-in-a-table-row#create-a-view-for-displaying-the-map) shows how to use this on the subview.

- On the subview add the view parameter `value` as an object.
- Add in object elements for each column you wish to access. (It might only be the `rowId` or similar.
- Use the view parameters as parameters in your subview named queries, etc.
