Setting Preferences Set the number of objects (max.) per page
The Set the number of objects (max.) per page setting determines how many objects (documents) will be displayed on a page. The range of possible values is 1 to 100. A small number here can make viewing lists of documents misleading. For example, if there are 45 documents in a list, but the objects per page is set to 15, you will only see the first 15 documents on the first page, even if there is enough space to display more. Its very easy to miss the fact there are more documents on other pages. Make sure to check the Total: number in the bottom-right corner and the paging controls in the upper-right corner of the Workspace panel.
