Row

The Row section of the Style editor governs the behaviour of rows. Rows contain either paragraphs or cells.

Setting row height

You can set the height of rows using the Height option. This governs the height of new rows created in a style, but remember that, if Fixed height is switched off, rows resize automatically to fit their contents, and that you can drag row borders to resize rows.

  1. Display the row section of the Change style dialogue box for the style you want to change.
  2. Enter the height you want by typing it into the box or clicking the arrow keys to increase or decrease the size already entered.
  3. Click OK.

Two further options governing the behaviour of rows are also set in this section of the Style dialogue box.

Changing row headings

The row headings are also set in this section of the Style dialogue box. Usually this is a number, so the Heading box contains #. You may, however, substitute letters or Roman numerals. The format description has the same syntax as the number formats in the Number section of the Style editor.

If you change the row headings, make sure that the row headings are not the same as the column headings, as this could result in a very confusing worksheet.
