Difference: MatrixPlugin ( vs. 1)

Matrix Plugin

Generates a matrix in table form. Input are two lists, containing the values for the x and y axis. The lists may be given directly, or as TWiki variables.

In effect, it is similar to a nested use of the FOREACH variable (see ForEachPlugin), but it will work better for complex substitutions in the cell content, since there is only one "replace". Also, it is easier to use.

Basic Usage

Using the two lists X and Y defined at the end of this topic, we generate an X*Y matrix like this:

%MATRIX{ 
  x="%X%" 
  y="%Y%" 
  xtext="Eins, Zwei, Drei"
  ytext="Aa,Bb,Cc" 
  corner="Letter \ Digit"
  cell="$x:$y" 
}%

This gives

%MATRIX{ x="1,2,3" y="a,b,c" corner="Letter \ Digit" cell="$x:$y" xtext="Eins, Zwei, Drei" ytext="Aa,Bb,Cc"}%

Parameters

The parameters prefixed with $ will be provided for the templates, whenever it makes sense from the context. In particular, in the cell template, $x, $y, $xtext and $ytext are available.

Name	Description	Template variable <-- -->
xtitle	Title template for x	Template
ytitle	Title template for y	Template
cell	Template for cell	Template
corner	Text for the upper left corner of the matrix
verbatim	For debugging. If true, shows generated Twiki markup
ytext	Concomitant for y, can be used in templates	$ytext
y	The vertical values	$y
xtext	Concomitant for x, can be used in templates	$xtext
x	The horizontal values	$x

Additionally, to allow delayed rendering of generated TWiki variable calls, the variable $percnt can be used.

• Set X=1,2,3
• Set Y=a,b,c
