- Creating a List View: The creation of list views is supported. See Using Views in the Web Interface for more details about the list view creation functionality.
- Paging (version 5.5.1 and up): This release supports paging for list views, however the paging for Aptify is not controlled by the same settings used in the Aptify Desktop client (i.e., under View Properties > Paging tab), but rather via the value set in the items per page drop-down in Aptify. The default value is 25. You can modify this setting by selecting the items per page drop-down at the bottom of the view. You can also navigate using the arrows or clicking a particular page at the bottom of the view to move between pages.
- Note that in version 5.5.1, that if you close and re-open the view, the paging is not retained and will revert to the default (25)
- Administrators can configure the default value (10, 25, 50 or 100). See the "Configuring Aptify Web Behavior" section of the Implementation chapter of the Aptify Web Implementation Guide for more details.
