How do I use Views Global Filter with Geofield 2.x Exposed Proximity Filter?

Question

I am trying to set it up so that a views global filter https://drupal.org/project/global_filter can set the distance and city for the proximity filter for Geofield? What are the steps to do this?

Answer 1

Add a filter that precedes that filter that is not exposed and creates the initial filter you want. Usually you can do this with most views handler filters, so it should work with the proximity filter.
