# Rows {% embed url="" %} The Rows display option shows each record as a horizontal row that stretches the full width of the page. It's the densest list layout — well suited to records with many fields you want to scan side-by-side, or to long lists of items grouped by project, status, owner or any other dimension.
## Setting up a Rows view The Rows Editor sidebar is split into a **Setup** section for layout-specific options and a **Grouping** section. See [Grouping records](/views/display/grouping-records.md) for the shared grouping controls. ### Card spacing Pick how much vertical space each row gets: **S**, **M**, **L** or **XL**. Smaller spacing fits more rows on screen; larger spacing makes individual rows easier to read. ### Field icons Toggle **Field icons** to show or hide the small field-type icons next to each field label on the row. Hide them (default) for a cleaner look, show them when users benefit from the visual cue. ### Style: Card vs Stacked A new **Style** selector controls how rows relate to their group: * **Card** (default) — each record sits inside its own outlined row with a small gap between rows. * **Stacked** — the outline and shadow move from individual rows onto the group itself, and the rows sit flush against each other with no vertical gap. Useful for a denser, table-like presentation while keeping the row structure. ### Header The Header section in Setup controls what appears above the rows: * **Title** and **Subtitle** — describe the page or view. * **Breadcrumbs** — toggle the breadcrumb path on or off. * **Cover photo** — add a visual header for context. Keep titles and cover photos simple so users immediately understand what the page is for. ### Actions The Actions section controls how users interact with rows: * **Drag and drop** — let users move records between groups or reorder within a group without editing fields manually. Drag-to-reorder requires the view to be grouped. * **Click behaviour** — choose what happens when a user clicks a row. If the page is connected to another table that has a [view](https://guides.noloco.io/pages/views), set it to open that page. * **Record style** — choose whether the record opens as a full page or in a side-drawer. ### Navigation The Navigation section controls how users access the page: * Decide whether the page appears in the sidebar or stays hidden. * Enable **Show record count** to expose the record count next to the page name in the sidebar. ### Record limit and pagination The new **Loading more records** selector controls how users navigate beyond the per-view limit: * **On scroll** — auto-loads more rows as the user scrolls. * **Load button** — shows a "Load more" button with a loading state. * **Pagination** — paginates the view, either with **Arrows** in the action bar or **Numbered** pages. The action bar shows the record count (e.g. "Showing 25 of 240", or "25 of 240 results" when filtered). ### Grouping In the Grouping section, pick the field(s) that group records and choose: * **Style: Colored** (default) **or Neutral** — controls whether group headers pick up the badge colour of the grouping option. See [Grouping records → Group Style](/views/display/grouping-records.md#group-style-colored-vs-neutral). * **Multi-level grouping** — up to 3 nested levels. Example: tasks grouped by **Project → Status → Assignee**. * Per-group **expand/collapse** default and **Show empty groups**. When you nest multiple levels, parent group headers stick to the top of the view and stack on top of each other as the user scrolls down — so the user always sees which higher-level groups they're inside. ## Using a Rows view ### Scrolling and behaviour * **Vertical scroll** down the page. * Group headers (and nested parent group headers) **stick to the top** of the view as users scroll past, with a thin shadow once a header is sticky. * Click a group's header or chevron icon to collapse or expand it. ### Hover and inline editing Hovering a row surfaces inline-editable fields. If a specific field is configured as inline-editable, hovering it overrides the row's general hover state so the user can edit in place. ## Empty and special states * **No value in the grouping field** — records appear in a neutral group with no colour applied. * **Empty group** — when **Show empty groups** is on, an empty group shows a single "No items" card and collapses by default. * **No matching records** — filtered views with no results show a general empty-state message. ## Troubleshooting **Records appear in the wrong group.** This usually happens when the grouping field has empty or inconsistent values. Fill in missing values or confirm the field type is consistent across records. **Records aren't appearing in the expected order.** Check the Sort settings — sorting is configured separately from the Rows layout itself. **Some records aren't showing up.** You may have a record limit applied. Check the Loading more records setting in Setup and either raise the limit or switch the load behaviour to On scroll. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
