Matrix

Matrix is the go-to fieldtype for handling flexible content, from Pixel and Tonic

Options

The matrix fieldtype has two population options. They look similar to this :

Matrix field options
Minimum Row Count
The minimum number of rows to create in the matrix
Maximum Entry Count
The maximum number of rows to create in the matrix

They should be self-explanatory. In addition to the basic Matrix options, each Matrix Cell get it's own settings.

Celltypes

Each celltype within a Matrix row inherits it's handling from it's fieldtype. Every supported field in seed is also available within a the Matrix fieldtype.

Note: Playa support with Matrix cells currently is unsupported as of version 1.0.

The specific celltype settings will depend on the relevant fieldtype settings. As an example, a text cell appears similar to this :

Note: Certain per-cell settings like cell required or max_length are not currently honored for all matrix cells in 0.9.4. Full setting support is in development.
