In 'news_items' view of ddblock, When I trim title,body to some character length or enable exclude from display,target link and whatever settings I do in Fields section, it is showing in view preview, but the actions are not reflecting in main ddblock.
Remove and add fields are reflecting fine. In other views these changes are reflecting as I set except in 'news_items' view.
I have checked permissions and cleared image caches. But I could not find my settings in display block.
How can I display field settings in ddblock..?

ppblaauw commentedThe ddblock module uses raw data from views, which has to be rendered manually in the preprocess functions.
This means you would for example need to trim fields in the preprocess functions yourself.
The views_slideshow_ddblock module (version 2.x for drupal 6) uses themed data from views, so all settings of views will work and no preprocess function used anymore. The Preprocess functions are replaced by mapping of fields.
Using themed data makes the views_slideshow_ddblock module much easier to use.
Also ddblock for drupal 7 and views_slideshow_ddblock for drupal 7 are working with themed data from views and field mapping.
Hope this helps you further, please let me know.
