Substitute of a list within a list.
0
I have a requirement which I can not use Persistent Entity and only use NPE. I receive data from external system through REST API and map the json value to make it usable on Mendix. I have successfully made a user input below (black grid). However I have requirements to create a functionality to create more user input by + button. I currently show user input field in a list view but if I want to create another and more user input fields(red/ blue/ green) I need a list within a list. Based on research I have done it is not possible on Mendix. Is there anyway to achieve this? User input fields are dynamic so I receive information about the input fields in UserInput such as (name/ data type/ upper limit/ lower limit/ etc) and the input fields are controlled by the visibility.

Hi Jay,
If i understand your use case correctly, you can achieve this using three non-persistent entities with a one-to-many associations between them.
One to represent the entire table, one to represent the rows and one for the columns.
You can then use two nested Gallery-widgets and style them to align in the way you need.
I hope this helps.
