CREATING A MATRIX
Matrix Views allow you to tailor Arcadia’s interface to suit your operation's needs. The Matrix editor on the web
page allows you to create and modify Matrix Views. The components of the Matrix editor are described below.
To create a new Matrix View, ensure you are in Edit mode using the Enter Edit Mode menu selection. Select the
Add Matrix option as shown below.
Figure 15: Create a new Matrix
An Edit Matrix page will appear. Enter a name for the Matrix and select Add Tile. The Add New Tile dialog provides
a drop-down box with various options to choose from as shown in Figure 16 below. Most of the tile types allow
addition of multiple tiles in a single operation, enabling fast Matrix creation.
Figure 16: Adding a new tile
After a tile has been added to the Matrix, it can be cut, copied, pasted, deleted or edited. Tiles are selected or de-
selected for editing with a single left-click of the mouse or a tap on the touch screen. Individual tiles or groups of
tiles can be selected, with subsequent clicks on a tile adding or removing it from the edit group. When you click on
a tile on the edit page it is highlighted with a red outline. In Figure 17 below, red outlines show that 6 tiles have
been selected for editing. Buttons for modifying the selected tile(s) are displayed at the top of the Matrix.
