When using Insert/Delete Rows and Columns in WPS on iOS, common questions usually involve where to find the command, why insert counts change, and how to recover from deletion; this FAQ covers 4 common questions.
FAQ
Why can’t I find the Insert Rows/Columns option?
- Make sure you opened a spreadsheet file instead of a document or presentation file.
- Select a specific row or column so the floating menu can appear.
- If the option still does not appear, tap Tools and look for the insert command under Insert.
Why does the number of inserted rows or columns change?
- Check how many rows or columns are currently selected.
- In quick insert mode, the number of new rows or columns follows the current selection size.
- If you only want one new row or one new column, select only one row or one column before inserting.
Can I recover a deleted row or column?
- Avoid making many more edits immediately after deletion.
- Use Undo right away to restore the removed content.
- If the file has already been saved and synced, check whether a history version or backup is available.
How can I edit spreadsheet structure more accurately on iPhone?
- Zoom in on the spreadsheet view to reduce accidental selection of nearby rows or columns.
- Confirm the current selection before inserting or deleting.
- For important files, save a copy before making structure changes.
