Configuring the Data Explorer display and pagination options

From the edit view of a Data Explorer component, you can select the default grouping for the attributes. You also can configure whether to enable pagination, and if pagination is enabled, whether to allow end users to select the number of results per page.

Under Display Configuration, to configure the default grouping, pagination, and navigation options for a Data Explorer component:

1. From the Default grouping drop-down list, select the default grouping for the attributes. You can either:
   • Display the attributes in alphabetical order
   • Group the attributes by data type
   • Display the attributes within their attribute groups
2. To specify a height for the component, in the Data Explorer height (in pixels) field, type the height value in pixels.
3. In the Target page to display record details field, type the name of the page to display when end users click the record hyperlink.

   The selected page must contain a Record Details component.

   If you do not provide a page name, then the current page is used.

   For information on configuring page transitions, see Page transition syntax.

4. To display the pagination bar to allow end users to navigate through the entire list, check the Pagination checkbox. The box is checked by default.

   If the box is not checked, then end users cannot navigate through the list. The component only displays a number of records equal to the value of the Default results per page field. To see other records, the user must further refine the data.

5. If the Pagination checkbox is checked, then to allow end users to select the number of records to display per page, check the Results per page checkbox.

   The available values for end users to select from are configured in the Available results per page options field.

6. If the Results per page checkbox is checked:
   1. In the Available results per page options field, type a comma-separated list of available values for the number of results to display per page.

      These values are used both to populate the Default results per page drop-down list below the field, and the Records per page options for end users.

      By default, the available options are 10, 20, and 30 records per page.

   2. From the Default results per page drop-down list, select the default number of records to display per page.

      The available options are configured in the Available results per page options field.

7. If the Results per page checkbox is not checked, then in the Default results per page field, type the number of records to display per page.
