Underlying Models

The Spread component provides the models that provide a basis for much of the customization that is possible with the component. The models are the underlying template from which the more commonly used shortcut objects are derived.

For example, if you change the number of columns in a sheet using the Sheets shortcut object, the model for this (the default sheet axis model) is updated with that information.

To provide different features or customize the behavior or appearance of your application, you can extend the models to create new classes.
