About This Feature

Overview

Row Height is a display adjustment feature in WPS Spreadsheet for Windows. It helps you change how tall each row appears in a data table so cell content is easier to review and the sheet layout looks more organized.

Core tasks include:

Open the row height entry from the toolbar.
Switch between four preset heights: Low, Medium, High, and Extra High.
Improve readability based on the current table content and viewing needs.

This feature is useful for lists, multi-line text, and presentation-ready tables. Changing row height affects layout and visibility, but it does not change the data stored in cells.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Supports opening the row height menu from the toolbar and switching among Low, Medium, High, and Extra High presets for quick visual consistency.	Excel supports changing row height by dragging row boundaries and can also fit row height to content.	Google Sheets supports resizing rows, including custom height input and Fit to data.	Notion table view supports row and column rearrangement plus wrapped text, but it does not present the same spreadsheet-style direct row height control.	Adobe Acrobat focuses on converting PDFs to Excel files rather than editing spreadsheet row height directly.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: preset row heights make it fast to apply a consistent layout across a table without entering values manually.	Compared with WPS: Excel offers more granular control through dragging and content-based fitting.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets provides custom numeric height and Fit to data for finer adjustment.	Compared with WPS: Notion is centered more on database-style table management than traditional spreadsheet row height settings.	Compared with WPS: Adobe is focused on PDF workflows, not native spreadsheet row height editing.

Overall Conclusion
If you want a quick way to standardize how rows look in a Windows spreadsheet, WPS offers a direct preset-based workflow. If your work requires custom numeric row heights or content-based fitting, Excel and Google Sheets provide more detailed controls. Notion and Adobe serve different table or document workflows rather than the same spreadsheet row height editing scenario.
