What is new in this release?
We are pleased to announce the new release of Aspose.Cells for .NET 8.3.1 . It contains over 40 improvements, new features and bug fixes. The Aspose.Cells APIs have extended support for the OpenDocument format. Now it is possible to save the ODS (OpenDocument Spreadsheets) in conformance with the ODF 1.2 specifications. The Aspose.Cells APIs have exposed the methods IsStrictSchema11 for the OdsSaveOptions class to allow developers to save spreadsheets in ODS format conforming to ODF 1.2 specification. The default value of IsStrictSchema11 property is false, and means that from version 8.3.1 of the Aspose.Cells APIs, the ODS files will be saved as ODF format version 1.2 by default. For more details, please check the article Save ODS file in ODF 1.1 and 1.2 Specifications. Normally, you add values inside the ListObject/Table using the Cell.PutValue method; however, the PutValue method must be associated with an instance of a cell to identify the location the value should be inserted at. This mechanism can?t be used when you need to add values inside the ListObject using the row and column offsets. Aspose.Cells for .NET 8.3.1 has exposed the Cell.GetTable and ListObject.PutCellValue methods to allow you to access the ListObject from a cell and add values using row and column offsets. Aspose.Cells provides the DataLabels.ShowCellRange property to select or clear the option Label Contains ? Value From Cells. Aspose.Cells APIs have exposed the SparklineCollection.Add(String dataRange, int row, int column) method to specify the data range and location of the sparkline group. In the new version, we have also provided enhancements for specify a prefix for image URLs in CSS and HTML files, Get/set Cell background color in Cell.HtmlString attribute and retrieve Cell.DisplayStringValue with conditional formatting. We have fixed a few exceptions that occurred while loading and opening Microsoft Excel file formats. We have also fixed the exceptions that occurred in manipulating shapes, rendering sheets, calculating formulas and manipulating pivot tables. We have also improved the performance when loading Microsoft Excel files. In this release, several important issues have been addressed. For example, issues around reading/writing Microsoft Excel file formats, printing spreadsheets, rendering HTML file format, manipulating OLE Objects, copying worksheets, manipulating shapes, manipulating rows and columns, rendering images from Excel worksheets, manipulating charts with formatting, rendering images files from charts and exporting Excel workbooks to PDF format have been resolved. We have also fixed some issues regarding the Aspose.Cells formula calculation engine to enhance it. We have also fixed a few issues in the web based Grid control by Aspose.Cells for .NET while loading/saving an Excel file. This release includes several enhanced features and bug fixes as listed below
- Specify a prefix for image URLs in CSS and HTML files
- Get/set Cell background color in Cell.HtmlString attribute
