search parameters - prevent reload if going to a child state

[hmdhk]

I have a parameter in parent state that shouldn't cause reload for the parent state if i'm going to any of its child states. (child states should be reloaded)

Have you tried version 0.2.15 with reloadOnSearch: false ? Or do you mean you want a child state to reload with the search params change but not the parent? If so, you might want to define the param on the child as well.

yes i have tried reloadOnSearch, it only works if I'm transitioning to the
same exact state, only with different parameters,
what i want is the ability to transition to a child state with different
parameter, without the parent state being reloaded.
i needed to define the parameter in the parent state because that parameter is common among all child state and it defines how they should behave. for example i may want to transition to a sibling state and i need that parameter to be the same and the parent state does not reload.

You could pass the param you want to the sibling: $state.go('parent.sibling', {paramName: $stateParams.paramName}

i could pass the parameter around but since that parameter is part of application's state that should be the same across all child states, it would be more convenient to define it once in the parent state and every child state would have access to it.

is this something you would consider adding in the future (like an option in parameter definition)?

this won't work until dynamic params are implemented, sorry. coming in 1.x
