Displaying stuff

Hi Steveo,

Assuming that users are accessing their records through the CMSB Interface...

1) In a multi-record editor records can simply be dragged up or down in the records list to change the order that they appear on a viewer (web page).

If you want to, you can limit the number of records that can be created when you set up the editor or the number of that can be shown when you set up the viewer. You can also easily restrict the records shown (or accessed) to only those created by the author of those records.

2) You can include a Hidden" check box in the record that users can check the box if they don't want it to be displayed. The status of this field can be displayed in the record list and the list can temporarily be sorted by that field so that there's a quick visual reference for which items are hidden and which can be shown.

You might find the tutorials and recipes in my CMSB Cookbook helpful in these kinds of situations. http://www.thecmsbcookbook.com

Hope that answers some of your concerns,

Best,

Jerry Kornbluth
