It is possible to display only a specific range of records when using a list binding. The necessary properties can be set in the binding information.
Use the length and startIndex properties of the oBindingInfo parameter of the sap.ui.base.ManagedObject#bindAggregation method if you wish to display only a specific range of your records. Your XML view will then look similar to the following example for a list of notes, for which the resulting table will display the fourth, fifth and sixth note ordered by Rank in ascending order.
<Table
items="{
path: '/Notes',
sorter: { path: 'Rank' },
length: 3,
startIndex: 3
}">
<columns>
<Column>
<Text text="Note" />
</Column>
</columns>
<items>
<ColumnListItem>
<cells>
<Text text="{Note}" />
</cells>
</ColumnListItem>
</items>
</Table>
