Hi looking to setup a dashboard page

So I have a table with 3 rows  
Model Base  
Model Year 1  
Model Year 2

On the layout

- Custom
- Container with 2 columns
- Trying to use a Big Number Component  
It works for the first row - Model Base  
But the Big Number I cant access values for any other row?

Is this a glide thing that each screen/page is tied to a single table? Ie. I cant have data from different tables for different components?

You can use relation and query columns to get other tables data in your screen. You can also use a custom collection container et select another source for that component!

Thanks Maxime  
Think the selecting source for other collection components will help mix up data on a single screen

Still not sure how the Big Number component works though because when using it just can show/access the first row data of a table only.

Create a custom collection container with a filter condition of the specific row you want, then put the big number inside that custom collection. To be even safer, add a limit = 1.

To answer this question specifically, yes each screen is normally connected to a specific row in it’s source table. If you don’t have any filters specified for the screen, and haven’t navigated to that screen from a collection, then it will most likely connect to the first row by default.
