For the data source navigation, it is important that only the required part of the data is generated by the data sources. Navigator elements can only be used for the data sources that support paging.

The transferring of the navigation commands to the data services and keeping the current data source state is the responsibility of the MoreMotion.

Requesting the Paging for Data Sources

In order to let a Navigator element to control the navigation of a data source, the "Items Per Page" and "Pages Per Block" properties of the data source should be defined. The example below defines that the RelDBQueryDataSource data source generates 10 result data nodes each time it is called.
