Other possible choices would be
At Beginning of Table
and
After
(where we would
have to choose from the drop-down menu, the field after which the new field must go).
We see the familiar panel for the new fields, repeated for the number of fields asked
for. We fill it in. However, as we want to enter a default value this time, we do these
two actions:
•
Change the Default drop-down menu from
None
to
As defined:
•
Enter a default value,
en
We then click on Save.
Vertical mode
The previous panel appeared in vertical mode because the default for
$cfg['DefaultPropDisplay']
is
3
. This means that for three columns or less,
the vertical mode is used, and for more than three, horizontal mode would be
automatically selected. Here, we can use a number of our choosing.
If we set
$cfg['DefaultPropDisplay']
to
'vertical'
, the panel to add new fields
(along with the panel to edit a field's structure) will be always presented in vertical
order. The advantages of working in vertical mode become obvious, especially when
there are more choices for each field, as explained in Chapter 16.
