Hi Lambert, The existing DatabasePager functionality can page over the network, but this isn't an issue for the DatabasePager - its purely a function of the net plugin that does the loading across the http. This means paging and reading across the network are completely orthogonal and can be mixed and matched at will.
The Viewers already have support for adding and remove subgraphs from the main scene graph via the DatabasePager. You needn't add your own code as long as the database is set in a way that utilises DatabasePager. You can write your own DatabasePager functionality, but it its likely to be alot less work just to use the built in paging support, this way the task for you is just how to build you database. Teaching you how to reimplement existing functionality really is way beyond the level of support I can provide for free. Robert.
