About the List Records Widget

The List Records widget allows you to display and edit multiple records of entities, structures or a combination of the two. In a Web screen, this widget is displayed as a list which layout is described below.

You can also use the Table Records widget to show multiple records of entities and/or structures.

Contents of the widget

To define the contents of the widget, you can:

Drag the complete entity and/or structure and all its attributes are placed in the widget, except the identifier and entity references.
Drag individual entity and/or structure attributes.

To place the identifier and entity references, simply explicitly drag them.

Layout of the widget

The layout of this widget follows these rules:

By default the attributes are all placed on the same line, separated by a space: The contents of this widget are, however, freeform so you are free to rearrange their display. The value of each attribute is displayed as a Expression widget and, therefore, you can use the Expression editor to modify it (they can optionally be presented using one of the input widgets to allow editing).

The way the records are presented in the widget depends on the Line Separator property:

New Line: This means that each record is presented on a separated line.
Bullets: This means that each record is presented on a separated line with bullets.
None: This means that all the records are displayed on the same line.

Iterating the widget

The entity and/or structure records that you want to display are defined in the Source Record List property of this widget which must be of the Record List type. Each record of this record list is displayed as mentioned above. The first record that is displayed corresponds to the Start Index position on the record list and the number of records displayed depends on the Line Count property.

To iterate over the Source Record List, you have to update the Start Index property for each iteration, by using the Line Count and Start Index runtime properties of the Table Records widget. See List Records Widget Runtime Properties.
