How to: Zoom In and Out of a Worksheet

Important

You require a license to the DevExpress Office File API or DevExpress Universal Subscription to use these examples in production code. Refer to the DevExpress Subscription page for pricing information.

This example demonstrates how to zoom a worksheet view (Worksheet.ActiveView). To do this, set the WorksheetView.Zoom property to an integer value that specifies the required zoom factor for a worksheet view.

Note

To specify how a worksheet should be scaled when it is printed, use the WorksheetPrintOptions.Scale property of the object accessed via Worksheet.PrintOptions. Refer to the How to: Specify Print Settings document for details on how to specify print options for a worksheet.

// Zoom in the worksheet view. 
workbook.Worksheets[0].ActiveView.Zoom = 150;

The image below shows the result (the workbook is opened in Microsoft® Excel®).
