Class XSSFSheet

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Iterable<Row>, Sheet
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    XSSFChartSheet, XSSFDialogsheet

    public class XSSFSheet
    extends POIXMLDocumentPart
    implements Sheet
    High level representation of a SpreadsheetML worksheet.

    Sheets are the central structures within a workbook, and are where a user does most of his spreadsheet work. The most common type of sheet is the worksheet, which is represented as a grid of cells. Worksheet cells can contain text, numbers, dates, and formulas. Cells can also be formatted.

      • addMergedRegionUnsafe

        public int addMergedRegionUnsafe​(CellRangeAddress region)
        Adds a merged region of cells (hence those cells form one). Skips validation. It is possible to create overlapping merged regions or create a merged region that intersects a multi-cell array formula with this formula, which may result in a corrupt workbook. To check for merged regions overlapping array formulas or other merged regions after addMergedRegionUnsafe has been called, call validateMergedRegions(), which runs in O(n^2) time.
        Specified by:
        addMergedRegionUnsafe in interface Sheet
        Parameters:
        region - to merge
        Returns:
        index of this region
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if region contains fewer than 2 cells
      • validateMergedRegions

        public void validateMergedRegions()
        Verify that merged regions do not intersect multi-cell array formulas and no merged regions intersect another merged region in this sheet.
        Specified by:
        validateMergedRegions in interface Sheet
        Throws:
        IllegalStateException - if region intersects with a multi-cell array formula
        IllegalStateException - if at least one region intersects with another merged region in this sheet
      • autoSizeColumn

        public void autoSizeColumn​(int column)
        Adjusts the column width to fit the contents. This process can be relatively slow on large sheets, so this should normally only be called once per column, at the end of your processing.
        Specified by:
        autoSizeColumn in interface Sheet
        Parameters:
        column - the column index
      • autoSizeColumn

        public void autoSizeColumn​(int column,
                                   boolean useMergedCells)

        This process can be relatively slow on large sheets, so this should normally only be called once per column, at the end of your processing.

        You can specify whether the content of merged cells should be considered or ignored. Default is to ignore merged cells.
        Specified by:
        autoSizeColumn in interface Sheet
        Parameters:
        column - the column index
        useMergedCells - whether to use the contents of merged cells when calculating the width of the column

        Specified by:
        setColumnHidden in interface Sheet

      • setColumnWidth

        public void setColumnWidth​(int columnIndex,
                                   int width)
        Set the width (in units of 1/256th of a character width)

        The maximum column width for an individual cell is 255 characters. This value represents the number of characters that can be displayed in a cell that is formatted with the standard font (first font in the workbook).

        Character width is defined as the maximum digit width of the numbers 0, 1, 2, ... 9 as rendered using the default font (first font in the workbook).
        Unless you are using a very special font, the default character is '0' (zero), this is true for Arial (default font font in HSSF) and Calibri (default font in XSSF)

        Please note, that the width set by this method includes 4 pixels of margin padding (two on each side), plus 1 pixel padding for the gridlines (Section 3.3.1.12 of the OOXML spec). This results is a slightly less value of visible characters than passed to this method (approx. 1/2 of a character).

        To compute the actual number of visible characters, Excel uses the following formula (Section 3.3.1.12 of the OOXML spec):

        width = Truncate([{Number of Visible Characters} * {Maximum Digit Width} + {5 pixel padding}]/{Maximum Digit Width}*256)/256

        Using the Calibri font as an example, the maximum digit width of 11 point font size is 7 pixels (at 96 dpi). If you set a column width to be eight characters wide, e.g. setColumnWidth(columnIndex, 8*256), then the actual value of visible characters (the value shown in Excel) is derived from the following equation: Truncate([numChars*7+5]/7*256)/256 = 8; which gives 7.29.

        Specified by:
        setColumnWidth in interface Sheet
        Parameters:
        columnIndex - - the column to set (0-based)
        width - - the width in units of 1/256th of a character width
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException - if width > 255*256 (the maximum column width in Excel is 255 characters)
