Hello everyone! I have been using Ignition for a short time and I wonder if it is possible to create a table that has the “Subview row” property (like the table on Perspective). I would like to get a table where clicking on a row opens a sub-line that displays information related to the clicked row. Thank you all! ---

I’m using a second table to do something like this. The first table has the primary information about a batch. When they select a row it fill in another table below it with more detailed information. I’ve done this 2 different ways. On one I used a custom property on the main table that did a lookup on the ID for the selected row. The second table used that ID to run a query to pull up the expanded data I wanted to display. The second way is I had the first table hold all of the information but hid the rows I didn’t want in the main table. Then I used a property change script to create a dataset, when the selected row changed, then write it to the second table. ---

It might be a good solution, but I’m not sur if the resulting effect (animation) is like the one in Perspective (example: click on the first row opens a sub-view between the first and the second row). ---

Unfortunately, this isn’t supported within jtables (the swing component used in vision). @bpreston has the best option in using a second table. You could get fancy in animating the second table to fly out from the first, but the second table is your best bet. 🙂 ---

Rats, hit submit too soon. This really is a neat idea, though, so I’d also recommend submitting it on the ideas forum: > **[Inductive Automation Feedback](https://ideas.inductiveautomation.com/)** > > Give feedback to the Inductive Automation team so we can make more informed product decisions.

I thought I could simulate a table with a template repeater and then implement the animation of the lines that move when you click … but it’s really hard!
