Right. Ignore last post.
I simply check the "frame". D2W sets the pagewrapper to
"D2WEmptyWrapper" if frame=1. I can't see where frame is set to 1 (and
why its not a boolean) but presumably must be something clever within
embedded components.
Therefore, I use
*true* => templateNameForQueryPage = "RSDBQueryPage" [0]
frame=1 => templateNameForQueryPage = "RSDBFilterPage" [5]
To choose between the proper query page and a query page designed for
filtering a list as an embedded component.
However, I'm still unsure how to find out the pageConfiguration
outside of the embedded component....

Interesting. I didn't know about frame=1. As for knowing which
pageConfiguration frames you, I'm not sure how or even if that's a
good idea. I just tell the embedded query what config it is with the
pageConfiguration binding.
ERD2WQuery {
...
pageConfiguration = d2wContext.embeddedFilterConfiguration;
}
or somesuch.

Hi all,
Leading on from previous posts, I'm adding a query component to a
list page.
I have embedded a ERD2WQuery component into the page like this:
Query: ERD2WQuery {
entityName = d2wContext.entity.name;
displayKeys = d2wContext.queryAttributes;
queryDataSource = displayGroup.dataSource;
action = displayGroup.fetch;
}
And it works perfectly.
I was surprised to see that this embedded component was magically
using my custom querypage. I don't understand how it does this,
despite tracking all the rules in use. I've gone rather cross-eyed
thinking about it quite frankly... How on earth does it strip out
the
pagewrapper etc. to do this? I had assumed that ERD2WQuery would
itself switch between different embedded components but somehow it
uses page-level components?
I wish to customise the component to use. I've tried setting
pageConfiguration like "List*" but it seems D2W must set the
pageConfiguration to "QueryXXXX" for this embedded component. Which
rules can I use to determine whether we are an embedded component and
what kind of page we're embedded in?
Thanks,
Mark
