How to make a panel use different queries depending on the dropdown value?

klim
Path Finder

I have a dropdown that has three options. Depending on the option the search of a panel needs to change. So if the dropdown selected was A, I need the panel to use search A. Is this possible or should I just build three of the same panels with a depends clause on that dropdown token?

The value for each choice in the dropdown can be the entire search

<choice value="index=xyz | table field1">Search 1</choice>

 Then the query in the panel can just be the token

<query>$dropdown$</query>

Alternatively, in the change handler for the dropdown, you could set a number of tokens which you use in the query of the panel, for example, your different searches might have different earliest and latest values.
