How exactly do you use the viewsactivity with views? I didn't see anywhere to select a view or any template views that came with the module.

Thanks.

Viewsactivity is automatically used when creating a stream with views. This is just to have everything follow "the normal flow". So in this case, a query builder is initiated, but views takes over (as it alters the query PDO query).

The only stupid thing for now is, that views activity should not be visible for you guys. This is just for internal usage.
So you should not care about that: just build your views in the views UI as you would normally do. (in the background a dummy stream is loaded so methods can be invoked on an interface (abstract class in this case) in stead of checking with if / else clauses.
