-===== Display Views =====+
  
 Display views are read only views into the model which do not change any model data but instead pull data from the model. ​ These can be considered as reporting view.  Here are some uses of display views: Display views are read only views into the model which do not change any model data but instead pull data from the model. ​ These can be considered as reporting view.  Here are some uses of display views:
