How to Change the Display Value Based on the View in a ServiceNow Portal Form?

[E555]

In a ServiceNow portal form, I am displaying a form with a specific view. I would like to change the Display Value dynamically based on the view.

I tried using an onLoad Client Script I was able to get the view from the URL, but I couldn't set the Display Value.

function onLoad() {  
	var url = top.location.href;
    var value = new URLSearchParams (url) .get ("view");

    if (value === "a_userportallist") {
		var username= g_form.getValue('u_username');
        g_form.setValue('display_value_field', username);
    }
}

Is it possible to change the Display Value depending on the view? If so, what would be the best approach?

Thank you!

@E555 

are you referring to setting display value of reference field/variable?

if yes then it's not possible as it comes from Dictionary and is shown for the field which is marked as Display=true on that table

Thank you for the reply.
It is a String Value, not a Reference. In the current Default View, A (String Type) is the Display Value, but I would like to set the other B (String Type) to Display Value in the newly created Custom View.

Didn't get this sentence -> In the current Default View, A (String Type) is the Display Value, but I would like to set the other B (String Type) to Display Value in the newly created Custom View

Please explain with screenshots.
