Setting the 3rd Row Matrix Cell

Select "uniform label" from the label type dropdown menu to configure the 3rd row matrix cell as uniform label.

  • Label Styles:Under the "Style" tab, configure the label font as SimSun, font size 10.5, text color (RGB) to (87,37,124), and background to white. Other font effect settings are as shown in the above figure.
