Create sample artwork for a list of images or text
When browsing the web, you may notice that lots of applications include scrolling lists of data (images and text). In Flash Catalyst, a data list component is used to display a collection of data that is stored outside the application. When designing artwork for a data list component, you don’t need to include every item in the list, just a representative model. A best practice when preparing your design document is to include the first item and a separate group that serves as a guide for alignment and spacing.
