This may best be done with some sort of scripting, personally preferably with mzscript (stable or not).
Use a state variable that keeps track of the current view. To change views, you can request a new view and hide the old view. (I feel this way is smoother than hiding old and then showing new).
This simply (not the best?) designed script I present (for mzscript v0.9 etc) uses one numerical variable that holds the index of the queue's views. You could do something like the following (which is Updated: tested and working, fairly understandable and pluggable w/ your text)
Have curview as a variable in a file, and of course add and modify the code as necessary. It is assumed that you have everything hidden initially.
