    AllowEditOverflow Property (FpSpread)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets whether data can overflow into adjacent empty cells in the component while that cell is in edit mode.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Property AllowEditOverflow As Boolean
    'Usage
     
    Dim instance As FpSpread
    Dim value As Boolean
     
    instance.AllowEditOverflow = value
     
    value = instance.AllowEditOverflow
    public bool AllowEditOverflow {get; set;}

    Property Value

    Boolean: true if data can overflow into adjacent empty cells in the Spread component while that cell is in edit mode; false otherwise

    Remarks

    Determines whether the display of data can overflow into adjacent empty cells when an editor is open in a cell.

    When this property is set to true, the following occurs:

    • Left-aligned data in a cell overflows to the adjacent right cell.
    • Right-aligned data in a cell overflows to the adjacent left cell.
    • When data is centered in a cell, data overflows to both the left and right adjacent cells.

    When the user moves from the cell, the spreadsheet automatically turns edit mode off and only the text that fits in the cell is displayed. To display overflow text in adjacent cells, use the AllowCellOverflow property.

    Example
    This example specifies if text is allowed to overflow to adjacent empty cells when users are editing the contents of the cell.
    FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread fpSpread1 = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread();
    FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView shv = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView();
    fpSpread1.Location = new Point(10, 10);
    fpSpread1.Height = 200;
    fpSpread1.Width = 400;
    Controls.Add(fpSpread1);
    fpSpread1.Sheets.Add(shv);
    fpSpread1.AllowEditOverflow = true;
    Dim fpSpread1 As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread()
    Dim shv As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView()
    fpSpread1.Location = New Point(10, 10)
    fpSpread1.Height = 200
    fpSpread1.Width = 400
    Controls.Add(fpSpread1)
    fpSpread1.Sheets.Add(shv)
    fpSpread1.AllowEditOverflow = True
