About This Feature
Overview
The Row Height feature in WPS Spreadsheets for iOS lets you change the display height of one or more rows so content is easier to read and the worksheet layout stays organized. Common ways to use it include dragging the row boundary, autofitting the row height to match content, and entering a specific value for more consistent formatting.
Core capabilities include:
- Manual drag adjustment: useful for quick visual changes to one or more rows.
- AutoFit Row Height: useful when you want the row height to match the current cell content.
- Exact row height setting: useful when you need a more consistent worksheet layout or print-ready formatting.
Typical use cases include schedules, reports, checklists, and print preparation where row spacing affects readability.

| Capability Summary | Supports adjusting row height on iOS by dragging the row boundary, using AutoFit Row Height, or entering a specific value through the row height and column width tool. | Microsoft Excel officially supports dragging row boundaries, setting a specific row height, and autofitting row height in its spreadsheet workflow. | Google Sheets on iPhone and iPad officially supports selecting a row and dragging the edge of the row number cell to resize it. | Notion officially supports adjusting row heights in dashboard layouts by dragging the divider between rows, but this is for dashboard widgets rather than spreadsheet cell layout. | Adobe InCopy officially supports setting Row Height and dragging row edges to resize rows, mainly in desktop table formatting workflows. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS combines drag adjustment, autofit behavior, and exact value entry in one iOS spreadsheet editing workflow. Distinct: It fits both quick mobile edits and more consistent worksheet formatting. | Compared with WPS: Microsoft's official page focuses on general Excel workflows and does not emphasize an iOS-specific row height path on the cited page. | Compared with WPS: Google's iOS help page highlights drag-based resizing, while the cited page does not show an autofit row height option in the same mobile workflow. | Compared with WPS: Notion's row height adjustment is tied to dashboard layout design rather than spreadsheet row formatting for cell content. | Compared with WPS: Adobe's cited row height workflow is designed for desktop publishing tables rather than iOS spreadsheet editing. |
