About This Feature

Overview

Row Height and Column Width is a built-in spreadsheet editing feature in WPS Office for Android. It helps you resize rows and columns by dragging their borders so table content is easier to read and the layout stays organized.

Core tasks include:

Adjust row height by dragging: useful for title rows, wrapped text, or cells that need more vertical space.
Adjust column width by dragging: useful when numbers, text, or formulas are not fully visible.

This feature is useful for data cleanup, mobile spreadsheet formatting, and quick layout fixes on a phone or tablet. It helps solve crowded row content and narrow columns that cut off visible data. On Android, the touch-based drag workflow is direct and well suited to quick spreadsheet edits.

Capability Summary	On Android, WPS spreadsheets let you select a row or column and drag the border to adjust row height or column width directly.	Microsoft Word on mobile supports touch handles for changing row height and column width in tables on Android devices.	Google Sheets on Android lets you touch and hold a row or column, then use Resize row or Resize column, enter a value, or drag the edges.	Notion supports resizing columns in page layouts and simple tables, but its help page notes that columns are available on tablet, not mobile phones.	Adobe InCopy lets users specify Row Height and Column Width in table formatting settings, mainly in a desktop publishing workflow.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS provides direct touch-based row and column resizing in an Android spreadsheet workflow for quick mobile editing.	Compared with WPS: supports touch resizing, but the official page is focused on Word tables rather than spreadsheet editing on Android.

Compared with WPS: focuses more on page layout and simple content tables, with more limited phone support for column layouts.	Compared with WPS: table size settings are documented in a desktop publishing context rather than everyday Android spreadsheet editing.

Overall Conclusion
