Work in the Designer

The SpreadJS Designer Component provides a WYSIWYG environment in a browser for customizing your spreadsheet at runtime. You can specify settings for cells, columns, rows, and sheets, and for the entire spreadsheet, using the SpreadJS Designer Component's ribbon menu options.

In this figure, the user is setting the grid line color for the sheet.

Note the following about working with the designer:

  • If you choose to wrap text, text will not wrap in a cell unless the user inserts soft line breaks by pressing Alt+Enter.

  • After you have edited or created your spreadsheet in the designer, you can save it or export it, and then re-open it in the designer later or have your SpreadJS widget load it in your application. For information about saving and opening files in the designer, see Open and Save Files.

  • If you wish to use automatic functions in designer, see AutoSum Functions.
