Using two-way gadget links

Two or more data selection gadgets can link to each other. For example a list gadget showing customer names and a list gadget showing order numbers can link to each other. When the user selects a customer name, the customer’s order numbers appears in the other gadget. When a customer selects an order number, the customer for that order number appears in the other gadget.

If more than two gadgets are linking to each other, the Show Selection gadget from the dashboard menu can clear all data selections on the dashboard at the same time.
