About This Feature
Overview
Row Height in WPS Spreadsheet on macOS helps you adjust how tall each row appears in a data table so cell content is easier to review and the sheet layout is easier to read.
Core tasks include:
- Open the row height control from the top toolbar.
- Choose a preset height option.
- Re-adjust the display based on the current table content.
This feature is useful for reviewing multi-line text, improving table readability, and preparing a cleaner spreadsheet layout. In the current workflow, row height uses preset options instead of manual numeric input.

Compare with Alternatives
| Dimension | WPS | Microsoft | Notion | Adobe | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Capability Summary | On macOS, WPS lets you choose among four preset row height options—Low, Medium, High, and Extra High—from the top toolbar for quick table display changes. | Excel supports setting a specific row height and also supports fitting row height to content automatically. | Google Sheets lets you resize rows, enter a custom height, or fit the row to data. | Notion table view supports rearranging rows and wrapping cell content, but its official help page does not describe a separate numeric row height setting for spreadsheet-style control. | Adobe documents row height controls in InCopy tables, but that workflow is for layout tables rather than spreadsheet editing. |
| WPS Advantages | Advantage: WPS provides direct preset switching from the top toolbar, which is convenient for quick spreadsheet cleanup on macOS. | Compared with WPS: Excel offers more detailed numeric and auto-fit controls, while WPS focuses on faster preset switching. | Compared with WPS: Google Sheets supports custom height and Fit to data, while WPS keeps the workflow simpler with preset choices. | Compared with WPS: Notion is more oriented toward database-style organization, so row display control is less direct for spreadsheet editing. | Compared with WPS: Adobe's related feature is designed for publishing-style tables instead of everyday spreadsheet work. |

Overall Conclusion
WPS Row Height on macOS is well suited to quick spreadsheet display adjustments with a direct toolbar workflow. If you need exact numeric height control or automatic fit-to-content behavior, Excel and Google Sheets provide broader adjustment methods, while Notion and Adobe address different table use cases.
