What is a Row? What is a Column?
This article will help you get familiar with the concepts of rows and columns.
What is a Row? What is a Column?
Rows in the document model of RadSpreadProcessing are groups of cells that are on the same horizontal line. Each row is identified by a number. For example, the first row has an index 1, the second – 2, and the last – 1048576.
Similarly, a column is a group of cells that are vertically stacked and appear on the same vertical line. Columns in RadSpreadProcessing are identified by a letter or a combination of letters. For example, the first column is called A, the second – B, and the last column is XFD.
Row Height
Rows offer several approaches for determining their height:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Default Height | Each row has a default height of 20. When the row does not have an explicitly set height, it appears with its default height. |
| Height | Allows you to make a given set of rows appear with a fixed height. |
| Auto Fit | Sets the height of a specific row based on the content of all cells in the row. The height is determined by the cell with the tallest content. |
Similarly, columns expose several ways to set their width:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Default Width | Each column has a default width of 65. When the column does not have an explicit width set, it appears with its default width. |
| Width | Allows you to make a given set of columns appear with a fixed width. |
| Auto Fit | Sets the width of a specified column based on the content of all cells in the column. The width is determined by the cell with the widest content. |
More information about setting row's height and column's width is available in the Resizing Rows and Columns article.
