As it is inherited from the BasicUniView control, which is in turn derived from the UniView control, the CMSUniView control has all of their properties. These can be found in the BasicUniView -> Configuration and UniView -> Configuration topics.
In addition, it has all of the following properties that can be set or used in the API:
•CMS controls - common properties
As well as:
Property Name |
Description |
Sample Value |
DataSourceControl |
Object of the data source control. |

DataSourceName |
ID of the data source control. |
|
DelayedLoading |
Indicates whether data should be loaded during the load event instead of the default init event. |
|
EnablePaging |
Indicates whether the built-in UniPager control should be used to for paging. If you wish to use paging, please be sure to set LoadHierarchicalData to false, as hierarchical data cannot be paged. |
|
ItemSeparatorValue |
Separator between displayed items. This property has greater priority than the separator set in the transformation given in the SeparatorTransformationName property. |
"<hr/>" |
LoadHierarchicalData |
Indicates whether data should be bound in the default format (flat structure) or changed to a hierarchical grouped dataset. |
|
NestedControlsID |
IDs of nested controls (CMSRepeater, CMSDataList...), separated by semicolons. |
"CMSRepeaterNested;CMSDataListNested" |
PageSize |
The number of displayed items per page. |
|
PagerControl |
Gets the current UniPager control used for paging. |
|
PagerPosition |
The position of the pager relative to the paged data. |
"Bottom" "Top" "TopAndBottom" |
ShowEditDeleteButtons |
Indicates if edit and delete buttons should automatically be shown for each displayed item in the edit mode of CMS Desk. |

UseHierarchicalOrder |
Indicates whether the default hierarchical order value should be used. The order is used only if LoadHierarchicalData is set to true. The default order value is "NodeLevel, NodeOrder". The value of the OrderBy property is added to the end of the OrderBy expression. |
The following properties can be filled to define which transformations should be used by the control. All transformations are specified in format:
<document type code name>.<transformation name>
The design of the listed items can alternatively be set by defining the ItemTemplate elements inherited from the UniView control between the tags of the CMSUniView control.
Property Name |
Description |
Sample Value |
AlternatingTransformationName |
Name of the transformation applied to items that have an even position in the listing order. Every level in the hierarchy has its own separate alternation pattern. |
|
FirstTransformationName |
Name of the transformation applied to the first item on every level in the hierarchy. Only works for levels that contain more than one item. |
|
FooterTransformationName |
Name of the transformation rendered at the end of every level (after the last item on the level). Can be used to close encapsulating elements from the Header. |
|
HeaderTransformationName |
Name of the transformation rendered at the beginning of every level (before the first item on the level). Provides a convenient way to visually separate or style individual levels. |
|
HierarchicalTransformationName |
Name of the used hierarchical transformation.
Please see the Using hierarchical transformations topic for an example of how this property can be used. |

Name of the transformation applied in cases where there is only one item on a level in the hierarchy. |
|
TransformationName |
Name of the transformation applied to all displayed items that are not covered by a specialized transformation type (e.g. alternating items, first items etc.). |
