How to Hide Rows and Columns
Developers can hide a row or column by calling the HideRow and HideColumn methods of the Cells collection respectively. Both methods take the row/column index as a parameter to hide the specific row or column.
Ruby Code
def hide_rows_columns(self):
\# Instantiating a Workbook object by excel file path
workbook = self.Workbook(self.dataDir + 'Book1.xls')
\# Accessing the first worksheet in the Excel file
worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0)
cells = worksheet.getCells()
\# Hiding the 3rd row of the worksheet
cells.hideRow(2)
\# Hiding the 2nd column of the worksheet
cells.hideColumn(1)
\# Saving the modified Excel file in default (that is Excel 2003) format
workbook.save(self.dataDir + "Hide Rows And Columns.xls")
print "Hide Rows And Columns Successfully."
How to Show Rows and Columns
Developers can unhide any hidden row or column by calling the UnhideRow and UnhideColumn methods of the Cells collection respectively. Both methods take two parameters:
- Rowor column index - the index of a row or column that is used to show the specific row or column.
- Row height or column width - the row height or column width assigned to the row or column after it’s shown.
Ruby Code
def unhide_rows_columns(self):
\# Instantiating a Workbook object by excel file path
workbook = self.Workbook(self.dataDir + 'Book1.xls')
\# Accessing the first worksheet in the Excel file
worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0)
cells = worksheet.getCells()
\# Unhiding the 3rd row and setting its height to 13.5
cells.unhideRow(2,13.5)
\# Unhiding the 2nd column and setting its width to 8.5
cells.unhideColumn(1,8.5)
\# Saving the modified Excel file in default (that is Excel 2003) format
workbook.save(self.dataDir + "Unhide Rows And Columns.xls")
print "Unhide Rows And Columns Successfully."
