Introduction to Matrix Components

The Matrix component, a composite of List, Grid, Column, and Tree components, is the standard visual interface for the Common Data Format (CDF), providing grid and tree-grid functionality that mirrors the record and attribute structures used by the CDF.

The Matrix components include:

  • jsx3.gui.Matrix : A control with spreadsheet capability
  • jsx3.gui.Matrix.Column : A column control for use as a child of a jsx3.gui.Matrix class.

In addition, the jsx3.gui.Matrix.ColumnFormat interface may be used by Matrix.Column instances to format a cell of data during the afterpaint event for the given Matrix instance. Static implementations of the most common formatters are provided, including currency, number, and date.

The Matrix component replaces List, Grid, and Column, which have been deprecated.

For definitions of Matrix properties, see Matrix Properties and General Interface GUI Property Reference.

For more information about CDF, see the General Interface Developer Guide and the General Interface API Reference.
