GridCreationSettings->{opt1->val1, opt2->val2, ...}
is a global option that specifies settings for the Create Table/Matrix dialog.
Details
- The following options may be specified for a table or matrix created using the Create Table/Matrix dialog box:
-
"Columns" 3 the number of columns "DiagonalFill" False whether a piece of text is automatically inserted into each diagonal element of a newly created grid box "DiagonalFillText" "1" a string to be automatically entered into each diagonal element of a grid box "DrawColumnLines" False whether lines are drawn between adjacent columns "DrawFrame" False whether a frame is drawn "DrawRowLines" False whether lines are drawn between adjacent rows "Fill" False whether a piece of text is automatically inserted into each element of a grid box "FillText" "0" a string to be automatically inserted into each element of a grid box "Rows" 3 the number of rows "Type" "PlainGridBox" whether a grid box created is a table, matrix, or palette - The Create Table/Matrix dialog box is accessed from the Insert ► Table/Matrix ► New menu item.
is typically set using the Number of rows: text field in the dialog box.
can be set to any integer value greater than or equal to zero.- With the default setting
, any newly created table, matrix, or palette has three rows. 
is typically set using the Number of columns: text field in the dialog box. 
can be set to any integer value greater than or equal to zero.- With the default setting
, any newly created table, matrix, or palette has three columns. 
is typically set using the Draw lines between rows checkbox in the dialog box. - With the setting "DrawRowLines"->True, a line is drawn between any two adjacent rows of the grid box.
- With the default setting "DrawRowLines"->False, no lines are drawn between rows.
only controls the display of lines indirectly, by specifying if a newly created grid box includes separate options for drawing lines. It is the 
that directly control whether or not lines are drawn.

is typically set using the Draw frame checkbox in the Create Table/Matrix dialog box. - With the setting "DrawFrame"->True, the grid box is enclosed by a frame.
- With the default setting "DrawFrame"->False, the grid box is drawn without a frame.
only controls the display of a frame indirectly, by specifying if a newly created grid box includes a separate option for drawing a frame.- The three possible settings for
are Table, 
, and 
. A table is a simple rectangular grid of elements; a matrix is a table that is enclosed in parentheses; and a palette is a rectangular array of buttons. - The value of
is typically set by clicking the appropriate radio button in the Create Table/Matrix dialog box. - With the setting "Fill"->True, the chosen text is automatically entered into the grid box.
- The text to be entered must be specified using the related option
. It can be any string. - With the setting "Fill"->False, a blank placeholder (
) is entered into each element of the grid box. - With the setting "DiagonalFill"->True, the chosen text is automatically entered into the grid box.
- The text to be entered is specified using the related option
. It can be any string. - With the setting "Fill"->False, a blank placeholder () is entered into each diagonal element of the grid box.
