2.1. (More)

Table column expressions i.e to[EBOM].from.id could result in a large number of values turning out in many rows within one cell. To truncate these rows we use "Show More" link if the value count exceeds the rows limit. Clicking the "Show More" link displays all the values present in cell in popup.

Configuration

<Column>
    <Expression>from[Multiple Objects].to.name</Expression>
    <Rows>4</Rows>
</Column>

For above configuration of a column results in multiple object while rows are limit for number multiple object to be visible.If rows limit exceeds then "(more)" link will be shown.
