== Data View Signaling == | |||
Signals can be sent from one data view to another when they have a field in common. They are sent by clicking on a link in a tabular data representation or clicking on a selectable region of a graphical representation. A data view can have any number of child data views that it sends signals to. In the case of data coming from a relational database, where there is a SQL query that corresponds to the data view, the signal is typically rendered as some type of constraint in a WHERE clause in SQL. The concept is not limited to RDBS databases but can be executed in the application when querying another webservice or NoSQL database. This signaling allows a user to drill down on a complex set of data. Data views can be displayed as multiple panes in a single browser window or spread out across multiple browser windows to make use of whatever screen capacity is available. | |||
