How can I create a view page which allows the display of say , the first 3 records in a row and the next 3 records displayed in the row under that. I created it in the visual editor which looks fine but after build it resets the page .I looked at the template html file and can see that it creates the table and cells, but am not clear on how to change it to allow 3 in a row, or is it something to do with smarty

Hi,
just change Records per row option on the Fields order and totals tab for this purpose.

Hi

I want to display fields from a particular record , eg, row 1 field 1, 2 and 3 and next row would be the next 3 fields (4th 5 th 6th) from the same record.

Sorry about that Jane, meant to put in the word fields not records in original posting.

Hi,
I see what you're saying.

Yo need to edit pure HTML for this purpose: create new row on the Visual Editor tab, drag and drop required fields.

Hi Jane,

I tried making the changes as you indicated, via the Visual Editor, however it didnt really work as after build it reset the page for some reason, then I decided to edit the view page template file using pure html, It works well, tell me, if in the future i decide that i want to have any blank fields automatically excluded from the view page, will this stil be possible now that the view page template is pure html and manually laid out.

Sure you can remove any fields on the view page on the Visual Editor tab.
Regarding your list page. It's difficult to tell you what's happening without seeing actual files.

Please publish your project on Demo Account and send to support@xlinesoft.com a URL to your pages along with instructions on reproducing this error.

I'll find what's wrong with your project inspecting it at Demo account site.
