JavaScript-HTML5

  • Preview and Print Data Views - SpreadJS supports several printing options including best fit, gridlines, borders, header, footer, margins, page fit, page size and page breaks.
  • Table Slicer - Filter and analyze data with an Excel-like table slicer.
  • Chinese Localization - SpreadJS supports Chinese character sets.
  • Excel Import/Export Component - Until now, SpreadJS’s Excel Import/Export features required an installed web service. ExcelIO is now a component that enables you to distribute it without license worry and exposes a public API.
  • Fixed Position Floating Objects - The floating obect now has a property to fix its position so you can add a chart, image, or other obect that won’t scroll off the screen as users navigate your spreadsheet.

Windows Forms

  • Smoother, More Accurate Scrolling - Rather than scroll by row or column, which can provide a choppy scrolling experience, the view now scrolls by pixel, which provides a smooth experience.
  • Diagonal Line Borders - Enjoy more control over design with diagonal borders that draw lines inside of cells. This is useful for crossing out cells or drawing borders around rotated text.
