Hello Daniel,
Basically in the View you set the Value for the components from variables/viewmodels passed from the controller, you cannot get the value from the widget you are initializing.
If you pass the value from let's say ViewBag:
Then you on the other places where you need that value you should again use the ViewBag to retrieve it.
Kind Regards,
