I have a question about collections and views in Exhibit that I was
hoping someone there could help me with. I'd like to have different
views use different collections. I'm using exhibit to display film
exhibition information, and I have a number of items: screening, films,
venues, runs (of films) etc. Right now I'm setting my root collection
to screenings, which produces a number of views of that data I'm looking
for. What I'd like to do is to switch collections for some of the
views, e.g. a map view which would use film items rather than screenings
to map nation of production for those films. I was hoping that
collections would work like lenses and I could do something like the
following:
<div
ex:role="view"
ex:viewClass="Map"
ex:latlng=".prod_nation.ll"
ex:colorKey=".venue_id.label">
<div ex:role="collection" ex:itemTypes="film"></div>
</div>
That didn't work. Any help or suggestions you could provide would be
much appreciated.
My compliments to all of you. Exhibit is an amazing tool.
Thank you,
Rob Nelson
