Set start/end limits to listings

Previously I was using just straight text for my ministries, directories and such. If now I use your plugin, it would be great to be able to take advantage of different layout types, for example multiple responsive columns. If I could set the record start and number, or even a percentage, I could place one shortcode in the first column to grab 50% or the first 50 records and the second to grab the remaining 50% or remaining 50 records. Otherwise, there would be a lot of wasted space and overly long page depths in some cases, unless you can paginate all the display lists. Thanks!
