Dataset properties

Now you can set which collection to use, the sorting order and filters. I would like these two options.

  1. Limit results to x number of records
    If I just want to show the last 2 news items I just setup this to limit 2 and the sorting descending on created.

  2. Offset to x number of records
    If creating a news magazine site I would want the top news larger so I will use the above with limit 1 and the I want a list of three news. Then I set the offset to 1 here, limit to 3 and then it will skip the first one and get the three records after that.

Can be done in code but it would be better if it where properties on the dataset.

In the works, and will be part of the “repeater” coming-soon delivery.

Will the offset be available soon? I have a project that I need to finish next week but it will be depending on offset in presenting the data.
