Spatial iterator attributes

Purpose

Spatial attributes define row and column repetitions for dynamically generated data. You can also set the maximum number of cells to be displayed.

Controls

Control Description Options
Align content If checked the content in columns and rows is aligned, otherwise the alignment is determined by the extent of the content  
2-D Indexing Direction Method for numbering the cells of a spatial iterator. Across Down numbers horizontally first. Down Across numbers vertically first. Across Down, Down Across 
Row/Column Iterations Whether the number of iterations an maximum limit or variable. Setting the controls to 'Up To' and '0' indicates that the spatial iterator allows for an infinite number of rows/columns. Up To, Exactly 
Row/Column Count The number of iterations  
Row/Column Styleclasses Space-separated list of class names. Edit opens the Styleclass Selection dialog where you can add to, order, or remove names. If there are fewer names than rows or columns, the list is repeated. The names must be valid CSS tokens.  

The following examples illustrate the use of the 2-D Indexing Direction attribute. Let us assume that a spatial iterator displays four cells. The following diagrams show the order of numbering of the cells for different attribute values.

Attribute Value
Row Iterations Exactly, 2
Column Iterations Exactly, 2 Up To, 0
