How to add a saved search to a FlashTimeLine?

I am using the flahstimeline view. I created and saved a search. How do I assign that search so that is always shows up as default when the flashtimeline is shown. I tried source="Saved_Search" but that made the flashtimeline and search nav dissappear.

Basically, I cloned the flashtimeline view and put the cloned flashtimeline into my application. I then edited the XML and added the following parameter under the following line:

  module name="SearchBar" layoutPanel="splSearchControls-inline"

Parameter added:

  param name="default"index=your_index_goes_here

Please note the absense of xml tags.

Although this is not a saved searched, the search string is defaulting to that value everytime I open up the flashtimeline search view which is what I want.
