Description

The info(“matrixname”) function is designed to be used with matrix objects. It returns the name of the matrix object currently being drawn, if any. This function allows a single matrix frame to be used with two or more matrixes. The display for each matrix can be adjusted based on the matrix name.

The formula below can be used to display items from a catalog in several matrixes. Each matrix will display a different category, depending on what the name of the matrix is.

array( 
    lookupall( 
         "Catalog",
         "Category",
         info("matrixname"),
         "Item",
         cr()),
     info("matrixcell"),
     cr()
)
