Hi, There are two ways to do that: - using cascade on an attribute in switchable-layout, it is automatically passed to all inserted definition in its template; you don't have to repeat the attribute in my.layout. - if you want to specify a variable value in tiles:putAttribute, use the body of the tag instead of "expression".
