Limitations

You cannot use the special "Display units" property to control how a specific field appears.

You cannot set the layout of the values; they will always appear as a comma-separated list.

... Seems to related to normal properties with multiple-value entries. Not how Record data is displayed.

Fields of records cannot be the basis for special purpose query formats such as Timeline or geography related ones, etc.

10) Property-Page Creation order (setup-1)

Property:Test_Number_2: Type: Number.

Property:Test_Number_1: Type: Number.

Property:Test_Number: Type: Number.

Property:Test_Record: Type: Record, Fields: Test_Number; Test_Number_1; Test_Number_2. (Setup 1)

11) ...

Set: [[Test_Record:: 123; 456; 789]]

Preview-Print: 11) 123 (456, 789)

Preview-Facts: Test_Record  ? (?, ?) +S

Save-Page

Browse-Props: Test_Record | 123 (456, 789) +S

Property:Test_Record: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 123 (456,789) +S

Property:Test_Number: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 123 +S - Note: usageItalic font style.

Property:Test_Number_1: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 456 +S > - Same

Property:Test_Number_2: MvGulik/Test Page +B 789 +S - Same

Note: Although the display shown "MvGulik/Test Page", the name that needs to be used in data calls, in this case, is "User:MvGulik/Test Page" (ie: FULLPAGENAME)

12) Record selection (#ask)
{{#ask: [[Test Record::+]] |?Test_Record }}
{{#ask: [[Test Record:: 123, 456, 789]] |?Test_Record }}
{{#ask: [[Test Record::  ?, 456,  ?]] |?Test_Record }}
{{#ask: [[Test Record::! 111,! 444,! 777]] |?Test_Record }}
{{#ask: [[Test Record::> 111,> 444,> 777]] |?Test_Record }}
{{#ask: [[Test Record::> 123,> 456,> 789]] |?Test_Record }}
{{#ask: [[Test Record::>>122,>>455,>>788]] |?Test_Record }}

Notes:

- Bad/Error: {{#ask: [[Test Record::?,?,?]] |?Test_Record }} , Use {{#ask: [[Test Record::+]] |?Test_Record }}

13) Fields display (#ask)
{{#ask: [[Test Record::+]]<br>|?Test_Record=v0 |+index=1<br>|?Test_Record=v1 |+index=2<br>|?Test_Record=v2 |+index=3<br>}}

14) #show ...
{{#show: User:MvGulik/Test Page |?Test_Record }}
{{#show: User:MvGulik/Test Page |?Test_Record.Test_Number }}
{{#show: User:MvGulik/Test Page |?Test_Record.Test_Number_1 }}
{{#show: User:MvGulik/Test Page |?Test_Record.Test_Number_2 }}

15) Notes:

- The Test_Record field data also shows up in the related field(s) properties (in Italic instead of Normal font style).

- Saving the same name:data pair, but now directly into a Record-field property, generates an additional independent property entry (Normal font style instead of Italic)

20) Record (setup-2)

Property:Test_Record: Type: Record, Fields: Test_Number; Test_Number; Test_Number. (Setup-2)

21) ..

Set: [[Test_Record:: 123; 456; 789]]

Save-Page

Property:Test_Record: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 123 (123, 123) +S

Property:Test_Number: MvGulik/Test Page +B 123 +S, 456 +S, 789 +S

Logic:

Save-part: For each input record-entry, its saved to Test_Number (as record related property). Ergo: Test_Number: 123 + 456 + 789.

Read part: For each record-entry, it pulls first Test_Number data. Ergo: Test_Record: 123 (123, 123).

This is a none useful data configuration/setup.

30) Record in Record (possible?) (setup-3)

Setup: just include an other record-type into a main record-type.

Saving: Needs escaping of delimiter.

Reading: ... ???/not sure yet/seems not possible/supported.

(already set) Property:Test_Number_2: Type: Number.

(already set) Property:Test_Number_1: Type: Number.

(already set) Property:Test_Number: Type: Number.

Property:Test_Record_1: Type: Record, Fields: Test_Number_1; Test_Number_2.

Property:Test_Record: Type: Record, Fields: Test_Number; Test_Record_1.

"Test_Record" Showing MvGulik/Test Page +B 123 (456 (?)) +S , the (?) part kinda indicates its not possible/supported.

"Test_Number" Showing MvGulik/Test_Page +B 123 +S , as expected.

"Test_Record_1" Showing MvGulik/Test Page +B 456 (?) +S , ...

"Test_Number_1" Showing MvGulik/Test_Page +B 456 +S , as expected.

"Test_Number_2" Showing no data.

31)

Set: [[Test_Record:: 123; 456\; 789]] . Just a long shot. Seem to work ... overall usability still questionable.

Save-Page

Browse-Props: Test_Record | 123 (456 (789)) +S

Property:Test_Record: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 123 (456 (789)) +S

Property:Test_Number: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 123 +S

Property:Test_Record_1: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 456 (789) +S

Property:Test_Number_1: MvGulik/Test_Page +B 456 +S >

Property:Test_Number_2: MvGulik/Test Page +B 789 +S

Note: Relative slow retrieval of Test_Record data (Browse-props), might indicate its kinda system heavy. (look for other/better ways to check that)

32) Data retrieval (Some SMW #Ask method I did not know, called "property_chain")

1) #ask
{{#ask: [[Test Record::+]]
|?Test_Record=Rec
|?Test_Record=v0(a) |+index=1
|?Test_Record.Test_Number=V0(b)
|?Test_Record.Test_Record_1.Test_Number_1=V1(b)
|?Test_Record.Test_Record_1.Test_Number_2=V2(b)
}}

Output: "MvGulik/Test Page | 123 (456 (789)) | 123 | 123 | 456 | 789"

Note: The (a) and (b) methods can't be mixed (no/empty output)

2) #show

{{#show:User:MvGulik/Test Page|?Test Record}} - - output: "123 (456 (789))"

{{#show:User:MvGulik/Test Page|?Test Record.Test_Number}} - - output: "123"

{{#show:User:MvGulik/Test Page|?Test Record.Test Record_1}} - - output: "456 (789)"

{{#show:User:MvGulik/Test Page|?Test Record.Test Record_1.Test_Number_1}} - - output: "456"

{{#show:User:MvGulik/Test Page|?Test Record.Test Record_1.Test_Number_2}} - - output: "789"
