Dear Rick, What you are looking for can easily be achieved. Under the Dashboard, Field Selector, right-click on the data source (e.g., GINI 1 km VIS West CONUS). There you will see a Properties menu item. When you select that, under the Properties tab, simply choose Automatically Reload to Active. Finally save your new bundle. Nice bundle, by the way.
