Borders on TFlexCelGrid

(Version 3)

I have noticed that when I change a cell border, the TFlexCelGrid shows a single line border, and the resulting Excel spreadsheet shows the actual TFlxBorderStyle that I set.

For the TFlexCelGrid in version 6, will this show the actual border type?

I haven't added a border ColorIndex yet. Will that show a color in version 3?

Thanks!

Hi,

Border colors show in FlexCelGrid, but border styles don't. This is mainly a limitation of TCustomGrid from were we derive, the CellPaint event doesn't allow you do paint outside the cell.

FlexCel 6 doesn't have a TFlexCelGrid, this is a FlexCel 3 only component. You can use FlexCelGrid with the FlexCel 6 engine by using TXlsxAdapter, so you get recalculation and a lot of other stuff like xlsx support, but it still is the same v3 FlexCelGrid.

We are looking into doing a TFlexCelSpreadsheet for this year for v6, and if we do it it will most likely support all border styles since it won't derive from TCustomGrid. The FlexCel 6 renderer (used to print, preview, export to pdf, etc) already support border styles too.

OK. Thank you for the information.
