Creating a table of several nodes

[Former Member]

Hi everybody,

I want to display content (that ist stored in different content nodes of my custom controller) in <b>one</b> table. These nodes are filled manually by creating Elements in the controller implementation.

The context of my tableView ist mapped with the controller context.

Everything is ok as long as I bind my table column to elements of one single node, but every time I try to bind it to different nodes only one row ist shown.

I hope someone knows the answer

Christian,

The scenario you whant to apply simply do not work with WD Table UI. You always have some kind of "master" node which servers as rows' source. This node should be defined as Table data source. Table columns <b>may</b> be bound to attributes of other nodes, but only value from lead selected element of such nodes will be used. Therefor you will see same values.

If you need to combine attributes from several nodes, do this literally -- create yet another node as table source, and collect all necessary attributes from other nodes.
