Viewports

You can divide the display into separate viewports or panes, each of which can be scrolled. You may have either:
  • a set of horizontal viewports (called a viewport row since it is a row of viewports)
  • a set of vertical viewports (called a viewport column since it is a column of viewports)
  • a set of both (as shown in the figure)



Viewports or panes allow you to display different parts of a very large spreadsheet in a very limited viewing area. You can add, remove, and customize viewports programmatically, and you can allow your end user to create and use viewports by simply clicking on the split box and dragging it to the desired location.


"As a long time user of your Spread COM product I have always been pleased with the flexibility and user friendly aspects of the control and it is great to see that your Windows Forms control continues this tradition!

Now that you are part of the same company which created ActiveReports (another product I have been a user of for a long time) I look forward to creating feature rich applications which will benefit my customers and my company. Excited to get started!"
