In this example, three exported elements contain two matrix attributes. The largest matrix attributes determine the number of rows and columns that are used for each element. Matrix 1 contains columns A-C and rows 1-3. Matrix 2 contains columns A-C and rows 1-6. Because matrix 2 has three more rows than matrix 1, 3 rows under Element 1 in matrix 1 are empty.
In matrix 1, Element 2 does not contain values for cells B1 to C3; those cells are empty. In matrix 2, Element 2 does not contain values for cells A4 to C6; therefore, Element 2 has three empty rows.
In matrix 2, Element 3 does not contain values for A5 to B6 or for any cells in column C; those cells are empty. If other attribute values, such as Description, Integer 1, and Integer 2, are exported or imported, they are placed on the same row as the ID and title attributes for each element.
