Upfront display in a a newsbox 1

[rm1234]

Is there any control on the sequence of items displayed in a newsbox?

Can all the items be presented one below another or do they have to be shown side by side i.e. 2 per row.

Can we change the sequence in which the items are presented? currently the items are sorted alphabetically.

Thanks..

There is a Upfront sample named 1columntheme which will allow you to display NewsItems in one cloumn. Please refer to Upfront documentation for how to add new Theme into Upfront and how to use it.

That's a great link, Gary. Sure beats putting leading spaces (that don't display) in front of newsbox items to give the impression of non-alphabetical sorting. Please accept this star as a token of my appreciation.

Hi Lex

You're certainly right there. I stumbled across the article the other day, I thought you would appreciate it.

Thanks for the star.
