Hi!
Is there a way to change how we mark the matrix? I mean instead of check marks, can we change it to letters? I'm just wondering if it can be used for CRUD.
If not, is there any way to create it?
Thanks!

Hello Julie,
yes, that's possible. Activate the "contents" window in the matrix screen and go to the tab "connection types". In the sixth column (titled "ab...") you can define an abbreviation (e. g. "c") for the connection type. Then this connection type will be shown with that abbreviation instead of the check mark.

Hi M. Zschuckelt,
Thanks for the reply! It worked...just one more question though, how about if I need to put the whole CRUD or CR, or any combined letters? Right now, I can only put one letter there.

Hi,
just double-click in the matrix cell and you get a list of all possible connection types you allowed for the model and that do not yet exist. Or select the cell and hit the Insert key. Check the desired connections and there you are: The letters are all shown in the same cell (maybe you have to widen the column, if there are too many). You can also directly type your shortcut letters into the cell and the connections are created instantly.
If you want to delete connections, use the Delete key.
Note, that deleting a connection in a matrix model deletes the connection definition. So if you have occurrences of that connection in other models, they are deleted there as well.
