Data objects are collections of fields of data. You can use a data object to publish data without using CGI scripts or database programming. For information about data objects, including how to create and delete them in Assets view, see Data Publishing.
When you click the Data Objects tab, NetObjects Fusion displays a list of all the data objects used in your site. In an internal data object, you can edit the name and field names and add new fields. See Changing an Internal Data Field Name.
For an external data object, you can change Simple fields to Image fields and vice versa, but you cannot edit field names or add new fields, because these items depend on data in the external data file. Data objects can also be deleted, but use care when deleting and make sure the data object is no longer in use on the site.
Photo galleries are a special type of data object. For information about photo galleries, including how to delete them in Assets view, see Creating Photo Galleries. You can configure a photo gallery here by double-clicking it.
