FAQ

What should I do if row height values do not feel intuitive?

  1. Make sure that you are adjusting Row Height instead of Column Width.
  2. Remember that row height is measured in points, not centimeters.
  3. If you need a more exact layout, convert your target measurement first and then enter the value.

Why do multiple rows or columns become the same size after batch dragging?

  1. Check whether multiple rows or columns were selected before dragging.
  2. Dragging the border of a selected group applies the same size to that group.
  3. If you want different sizes, select and resize each area separately.

How do I restore the default column width?

  1. Select the columns that you want to restore, or select all columns in the worksheet.
  2. Click the Insert tab and open the Row and Column drop-down.
  3. Select Standard Column Width to restore the default width of 8.18 characters.

What can I do if automatic fit still does not display content well?

  1. Start with Auto Fit Row Height or Auto Fit Column Width.
  2. If the result is still not ideal, drag the border manually for fine adjustment.
  3. For areas that need a consistent layout, enter a fixed value for more exact control.
