Hi Jacopo,
It works, thanks!

It's attribute "override-list-size" for the <form> element. Just pump in the value of "listSize"
returned by the service "performFindList".

<row-actions> work. Very clean.

Is anybody using service performFindList?
That service returns the actual list size (in context as "listSize"),
and a possibly smaller list (FastList). The problem is that when this
list gets to the ModelForm.java (method getListLimits()), the context
value "listSize" is totally ignored, and the list size is gotten from
the partial list returned by performFindList. Obviously, this is
wrong, since the actual list size IS NOT the size of the partial list!
If I'm not wrong, some time ago a new attribute has been added (to the
<form> element?) to specify a non default field (or value) containing
the actual list size... I think you should find it in the xsd file.
If I am allowed to fix the problem right here, in ModelForm.java, the
following questions are moot.
I have another question, about service performFind.
In Minilang, how do I take the EntityIterator returned by that
service, calculate some additional values, and slap on those values
into the list elements to be displayed in the UI listings output as an
additional column? For eg, I may have a simple logic like "if product
name is profane, display a big label VULGAR, else display a small
label Mild". I'd want a product listing that has the additional column
called "Vulgarity alert".
I think you can use the <row-actions> section in your form widget
definition; it is similar to the <actions> section but the actions in
the former are run for each and every row in the list.

OR...
Can I get the Widget Form renderer to look at 2 lists with the same
sizes, and simply combine them, like "row 1 of list A with row 1 of
list B, and row 2 with row 2..."?
If I can somehow massage the EntityIterator from service performFind,
I won't have to use performFindList.
Or should I just go for freemarker macros in such cases?
Thanks.
Jonathon
