SonataAdmin - form collections

Question

I'm trying to embed a Product Variant into my Product admin using SonataAdminBundle .

So one Product has many Variants

I have the following Entities:

Product.php

/**
 * @var ProductVariant $variants
 * @ORM\ManyToMany(targetEntity="ProductVariant", cascade={"persist", "remove"} )
 **/
protected $variants;

ProductVariant.php

/**
 * @ORM\ManyToOne(targetEntity="Product", inversedBy="variants")
 * @ORM\JoinColumn(name="product_id", referencedColumnName="id")
 */
protected $product;

Now, I have the following in my Admin Form class:

        ->add('variants','collection', array(
           'type' =>  new ProductVariantType(),
           'allow_add' => true,
       ), array(
           'edit' => 'inline',
           'inline' => 'table',
       ))

This displays the Add Button to add a new Variant, but after clicking on it, I'd expect the row to be inline and within a table , but these options don't seem to get triggered.

Thanks

Only sonata_type_collection supports options 'edit' and 'inline' . Not core collection type.
