Technical documentation - Configuring node view in catalogue
It is possible to configure the node view in a catalogue to make it appear in a few different ways. Standard configuration contains node view, grid view and table view, and each alternative display selected information. Through this configuration it is possible to configure default alternative and options on how to display.
This function is available in version 4.5.
Note that it is changed in new UI in version 5.0. Old UI in version 5 still uses the below setting.
Instructions
The configuration is done in the PresentationSettings block of profile.config.
Below is a sample configuration which explains the options on catalogues.
