Freezing and Unfreezing Rows and Columns

You might want to compare data in a worksheet while working on it. However, if the data in the worksheet is in large amount then it becomes difficult to compare. C1FlexSheet allows you to freeze rows and columns that can help you compare different parts of your data easily.

When you want to compare data in specific rows/columns and want that data fixed at a place in a worksheet while scrolling through the rest of the data in it, you can freeze the rows or columns using Frozen property in C1FlexSheet. Also, when you are done comparing the data, you can unfreeze the rows and columns using Frozen property. You can use the following lines of code to freeze and unfreeze the data in a sheet:

vbnet

If flex.Rows.Frozen > 0 OrElse flex.Columns.Frozen > 0 Then
    ' unfreeze
    For i As Int32 = 0 To flex.Rows.Frozen - 1
        flex.Rows(i).Visible = True
    Next
    For i As Int32 = 0 To flex.Columns.Frozen - 1
        flex.Columns(i).Visible = True
    Next
    flex.Rows.Frozen = 0
    flex.Columns.Frozen = 0
Else
    ' freeze
    Dim vr = flex.ViewRange
    For i As Int32 = 0 To vr.TopRow - 1
        flex.Rows(i).Visible = False
    Next
    For i As Int32 = 0 To vr.LeftColumn - 1
        flex.Columns(i).Visible = False
    Next
    flex.Rows.Frozen = flex.Selection.TopRow
    flex.Columns.Frozen = flex.Selection.LeftColumn
    flex.ScrollIntoView(flex.Rows.Frozen, flex.Columns.Frozen)
End If

if (flex.Rows.Frozen > 0 || flex.Columns.Frozen > 0)
{
    // unfreeze
    for (var i = 0; i < flex.Rows.Frozen; i++)
    {
        flex.Rows[i].Visible = true;
    }
    for (var i = 0; i < flex.Columns.Frozen; i++)
    {
        flex.Columns[i].Visible = true;
    }
    flex.Rows.Frozen = 0;
    flex.Columns.Frozen = 0;
}
else
{
    // freeze
    var vr = flex.ViewRange;
    for (var i = 0; i < vr.TopRow; i++)
    {
        flex.Rows[i].Visible = false;
    }
    for (var i = 0; i < vr.LeftColumn; i++)
    {
        flex.Columns[i].Visible = false;
    }
    flex.Rows.Frozen = flex.Selection.TopRow;
    flex.Columns.Frozen = flex.Selection.LeftColumn;
    flex.ScrollIntoView(flex.Rows.Frozen, flex.Columns.Frozen);
