The data object is now an asset of your site, and you can continue as follows:
• If you’re working in Page view, the Data Publishing dialog is still open. You
can select fields and format the data list as described in “Creating a Data List”
on page 840, and lay out your stacked pages as described in “Creating Stacked
Pages” on page 843.
• If you’re in Assets view, go to Page view, select the Data List tool from the
Advanced toolbox, and draw a rectangle on the page. In the Data Publishing
dialog, select the newly created data object from the drop-down list. Select
fields and format the data list as described in “Creating a Data List” on
page 840, and lay out your stacked pages as described in “Creating Stacked
Pages” on page 843.
Creating a Data List
Once you create a data object, you can create a data list on any page. You create a
data list and a set of stacked pages at the same time. NetObjects Fusion
automatically includes linked data list icons in the first column in the data list. The
data list thus acts as a table of contents—each row contains data for, and is linked
to, a single stacked page.
To create a data list:
1. In Page view, display the page on which you want to place the data list.
2. Select the Data List tool from the Advanced toolbox and draw a rectangle in the
Layout area.
The Data Publishing dialog appears. Select the data object you want to use for
this data list.
