Dynamically setting the bound parameter for a Supplied Parameter

Is it possible to dynamically set the Bound Parameter of a Supplied Parameter? I have tried to use and xfbr rule to do this but the supplied parameter but this does not work.

I am not aware of any way to dynamically add components to a dashboard at run time

Embedded Dashboards components have a property Embedded Dashboard, which can be set to a Parameter. You can then manipulate that parameter in various ways (including the one Henning mentioned) to specify the name of a different Dashboard to embed, hence loading different controls if required. You will have to refresh or reload the dashboard embedding that component, after the parameter is changed, in order to trigger redrawing of the Embedded Dashboard.

Note that you can create your own Embedded Dashboard component like any other Component, you are not limited to the ones that get created when you create Dashboards.

Hi Jack. Yes, you are correct. But I think that I was a little unclear. I really meant to dynamically add a new component at run-time, such as adding a new supplied parameter to a dashboard, or a new button. I do not mean making a component visible or referring to an already existing component such as a dashboard.
