I have two components to show data. The table view and the graph view. Both components has the same data. I use a toggle switch button to switch between these views. This is my code:
<ion-header>
<ion-toolbar class="toolbar-color">
<ion-title>Views</ion-title>
</ion-toolbar>
</ion-header>
<ion-content class="ion-padding">
<ion-grid>
<ion-row>
<ion-col>
<div class="ion-text-start">
<ion-item>
<ion-label>Switch to table view</ion-label>
<ion-toggle (click)="showTable()"></ion-toggle>
</ion-item>
</div>
</ion-col
</ion-row>
<ion-row>
<ion-col>
<app-tableview hidden="true" id="tableview"></app-tableview>
<canvas height="200" #lineCanvas></canvas>
</ion-col>
</ion-row>
</ion-grid>
</ion-content>
The default view is the graphview via chart.js. Both components works fine. This is my code to hide and show:
showTable() {
if (this.tableHidden === true) {
this.tableHidden = false;
document.getElementById("tableview").hidden = false;
} else if (this.tableHidden === false) {
this.tableHidden = true;
document.getElementById("tableview").hidden = false;
}
}
When I click on the toggle switch it doesn't hide the graphview but it shows the table view among each other. I have tried the visibility from this post but doesn't work.
How can I switch between the components and show only view?

An example based off @alex87's comment:
<ng-container *ngIf="showTableView">
<app-tableview id="tableview"></app-tableview>
</ng-container>
<ng-container *ngIf="!showTableView">
<canvas height="200" #lineCanvas></canvas>
</ng-container>
Doesn't have to be an ng-container, but that Angular-only tag will not add anything to the DOM. You can always use a or anything else to do just the same...
You can also neaten it up by using an *ngIfElse...
