Research direction

Start with the SelectedView setter on the <mj-view-workspace> component and trace how it passes state to the grid and view selector. Set SelectedViewId from the incoming view's ID, falling back to null, and verify that hosting the element highlights the same view shown by the grid.

Description

bug
Summary

When a host passes a view through mj-view-workspace's [SelectedView] input, the grid shows that view but the view selector does not highlight it, because the setter never updates selectedViewId. A fix sets the selected ID from the view in the setter.

What happened

Follow-up from bizapps-orders PR #243 (known MJ limitation), never filed. https://github.com/MemberJunction/bizapps-orders/pull/243

The orders grids open on the shared "Orders: Working" view through [SelectedView]; the selector shows no selection.

Expected: the selector highlights the view the workspace is showing.
Actual: nothing is highlighted.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Host <mj-view-workspace [SelectedView]="someView">.
  2. The grid shows the view; the selector has no selected item.
