Glossary Item Box

You can hide a row or column so that it is not visible to the user. You can also hide only the row headers or column headers; follow the procedures in Showing or Hiding Headers.

When you hide a row or column, the value of the row height or column width is "remembered" by the fpSpread component. If you display the row or column again, it is displayed at the value it was before it was hidden. The data is still available to other parts of the sheet; the only change is that the row or column is not displayed.

You can set the display of a sheet to display a particular row as the top row. Use the SheetView.TopRow property.

If you want to remove the row or column, refer to Removing a Row or Column.

Using a Shortcut

Set the Visible property for the Row shortcut object or the Visible property for the Column shortcut object, or use the SetRowVisible or SetColumnVisible method in the SheetView object.

Example

This example code hides the second row and hides the third column.

C# Copy Code
FpSpread1.Sheets[0].SetRowVisible(1, false);
FpSpread1.Sheets[0].SetColumnVisible(2, false);
VB Copy Code
FpSpread1.Sheets[0].SetRowVisible(1, false)
FpSpread1.Sheets[0].SetColumnVisible(2, false)

Using Code

Set the SetRowVisible or SetColumnVisible method in the SheetView object.

Example

This example code sets the first sheet to have 100 rows and 10 columns.

C# Copy Code
FarPoint.Web.Spread.SheetView sv; 
sv = FpSpread1.ActiveSheetView; 
sv.SetRowVisible(1, false); 
sv.SetColumnVisible(2, false); 
VB Copy Code
Dim sv As FarPoint.Web.Spread.SheetView
sv = FpSpread1.ActiveSheetView
sv.SetRowVisible(1, False)
sv.SetColumnVisible(2, false)

Using the Spread Designer

  1. In Spread Designer, select the row or column.
