Protection

Spread allows you to limit user operations in a workbook. By locking/unlocking cells or making menus visible/invisible you can decide what users can edit or not.

Sometimes you don't want the values of cells in a sheet to be edited. If so, you can use the isProtected option to set and get whether the sheet is protected.

       var spread = GC.Spread.Sheets.findControl(document.getElementById('ss'));
       var sheet = spread.getActiveSheet();
       sheet.options.isProtected = true;
       sheet.options.isProtected; // true

If you want to protect the worksheet with a password, you can use protect, unprotect and hasPassword API.

       var spread = GC.Spread.Sheets.findControl(document.getElementById('ss'));
       var sheet = spread.getActiveSheet();
       var password = '<user_input>';
       sheet.protect(password);
       // ...
       if (sheet.hasPassword()) {
              var passwordUnlock = '<user_input>';
              var success = sheet.unprotect(passwordUnlock);
              // ...
       } else {
              sheet.unprotect(); // or sheet.options.isProtect = false;
       }

When a sheet is protected, you can use protectionOptions to limit user actions by providing an object with the following properties:

allowSelectLockedCells: Boolean that represents whether the user can select locked cells.

allowSelectUnlockedCells: Boolean that represents whether the user can select unlocked cells.

allowSort: Boolean that represents whether the user can sort ranges.

allowFilter: Boolean that represents whether the user can filter ranges.

allowEditObjects: Boolean that represents whether the user can edit floating objects.

allowResizeRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can resize rows.

allowResizeColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can resize columns.

allowDragInsertRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can drag insert rows.

allowDragInsertColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can drag insert columns.

allowInsertRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can insert rows.

allowInsertColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can insert columns.

allowDeleteRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can delete rows.

allowDeleteColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can delete columns.

allowOutlineRows: Boolean that represents whether the user can expand or collapse row outline.

allowOutlineColumns: Boolean that represents whether the user can expand or collapse column outline.

       var spread = GC.Spread.Sheets.findControl(document.getElementById('ss'));
       var sheet = spread.getActiveSheet();
       sheet.options.protectionOptions = {
             allowSelectLockedCells: true, 
             allowSelectUnlockedCells: true,
             allowSort: false 
             allowInsertColumns: true 
       };
       var option = sheet.options.protectionOptions;
       console.log(JSON.stringify(option, null, 2));
