Maybe those additional info could be added to the Velocity Macro doc page so that reading
that page would be enough to understand how to use it? :)

Now it does
look like the extraParams option is what I'm looking for, but I
can't get that to work either.
The documentation says
"all the objects that have a specific value for a property ("extraParams"
:
"&yourProperty=yourValue" - note that in this particular case,
yourProperty
has to be declared in the $columns array). "
Here's what I did:
#set($columns = ["Version", "Name", "ReleaseDate"])
#set($columnsProperties = {
"Name": { "link" : "none" }
})
#set($options = {
"className":"Development.Resources.Version
Information.VersionInformationClass",
"tagCloud" : true,
"rowCount": 20,
"extraParams" : "&Version='4.0'"
You need to be aware that these paremeters are actually URL parameters that
are sent to the livetable results page with javascript (when loading the
livetable, switching to the next page, filtering, etc.), so you don`t need
to quote the value.
Assuming that "Version" is indeed the name of the property you want to
filter by (and it's not the pretty name of the property; please check that.
It would usually be lowercase. It needs to match both the class property
name and the column name), it should just be:
"extraParams" : "&Version=4.0"
Note: If you need to have more complicated values in the extraParams
option, you will need to escape the values by hand.
Example:
"extraParams" :
"&$name1=$escapetool.url($value1)&name2=$escapetool.url($value2)",
where
$valueN would be "Value/with?URL&specific%characters”. Thanks,
Eduard
