Import question

[Alan]

Are there plans to try to keep cell formatting (rich text stuff like like bold, underline, etc) when importing an excel file to the new spreadsheet component? I tried importing a basic spreadsheet using the online demo and it imported row background color, but bolded and underlined text in a cell was not imported - was just plain text.

 If this is not currently planned, is it possible? If so, I'll start a request on which to vote to see if it gains traction.

Hello Alan,

 

Text styles such bold, italic and underline should work properly with import/export. Here is a quick screen cast and the test file.

Yep, works just fine if the entire content of the cell is formatted. Is it possible to keep formatting if just part of the cell content has formatted text? Something like in the attached file.

Hello Alan,

 

I see what you mean. Indeed this is currently not supported. You can submit this as a feature request on UserVoice, so that it is considered for implementation in a future release.
