Dynamic dataset in pagination

[pkontopoulos]

Hi,
I want to have a single screen with a records list, where - based on URL parameters - I want to decide which dataset should I connect to the records list, so I can use the screen for different filtered records lists.

I managed to do this but I have a problem with the paginator of the records list, since it can be connected only with predefined datasets.

Any chance to connect a pagination with a dataset dynamically?

Thanks.

Hope this helps!
