Thanks @ghiscoding for the quick response. I’m pretty new to Aurelia and extending an existing app. This is new functionality that has been added before 
There’s no problem getting the table to update with the filters, it’s just the UI filter toggles I haven’t worked out how to update. They get updated by the user when clicked, but not when changed through code (via the activate method when returning to the page).
I’ve read a number of articles on this site which get close to what I’m trying to achieve but haven’t yet managed to get it working
Perhaps I need to pull out the filters into their own view and re-inject them into the list-view somehow? Or look into use App State? But then that looks pretty heavy-weight.
cheers,
