Issue that when something is unselected in the map view 2 still appears but without data

CraigUtter

I have two views, the second view only appears when something is selected from the list. Users also have the ability to select things in the map manually, and when they select something in the map, the view 2 information will change to show the associated information with the new selected (screenshot 1 below). However, when the user clicks X to exit out of the pop-up that appears in the map, the view 2 information disappears and shows the attribute names and layout that is configured on the backend which is very sloppy looking.

Inherently, view 2 should only be showing when something is selected. Why doesn't the side panel go back to the list view when something is unselected in the map? I would think this would be a natural progression for this type of action and relationship. Does anyone know a workaround to this issue?

One options is to make a "dummy" entry in your data that shows in the panel with something more informative in the info panel when the selection is lost.

There is options for empty selections in the EB interface, under the data tab "View for empty selection".

In my case, I have a record (I made it the first record so it defaults in other widgets also) with "No Photo Available", then create a view that only includes that record, and set it as the Empty selection view.  This way, if there is no selection, I get the info window you see below rather than all the attribute names/layout stuff.
