Default a specific view to display as a "Grid" rather than "Calendar"

Posted on by 30

I simply want to create a new personal view of Activities that defaults to Grid view, rather than Calendar. I have read the technique for making this change system-wide for the Activity entity, by using the System customization interface, but that's not we want. We just want one particular Activity view to be grid by default. I have to believe I am missing something super basic.

What's the secret sauce?

TIA,

Bob

    Hi CICAdmin,

    Unfortunately, there is no setting do this. Controls is entity-level, not view-level. You can only set default control for Web, Phone and Tablet by using the System customization interface:

    After setting it, you could change the control by click Show As button in the command bar. However, you couldn't set the control as default.

    You can post your proposal in Ideas forum in order to drive it to be improved.
