FAQ
Does Highlight Rows and Columns affect printing?
- Highlight Rows and Columns is a screen display aid.
- After you turn it on in a worksheet, you can continue editing and previewing content normally.
- During printing or output, the actual cell content and existing formatting remain the main result, so this highlight effect is not written into the spreadsheet as data.
Why can’t I see the highlight effect after turning it on?
- First, make sure the file is open in WPS Sheets and that you are in a worksheet view.
- Check whether Highlight Rows and Columns is actually turned on from the View tab or the bottom status bar.
- Select any cell and watch for changes in its row and column. If nothing appears, switch the toggle once and select a cell again.
Will other collaborators see the highlight effect that I turned on?
- Highlight Rows and Columns is mainly used as a viewing aid in the current interface.
- Each collaborator can decide whether to turn it on based on their own viewing needs.
- The effect helps the current user locate the active position and does not change the actual spreadsheet data.
