Alignment.Vertical Property
Gets or sets the vertical alignment of the cell content.
Namespace: DevExpress.Spreadsheet
Assembly: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.v20.2.Core.dll
Declaration
Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| SpreadsheetVerticalAlignment | A SpreadsheetVerticalAlignment enumeration member specifying how cell data should be vertically aligned. |
Remarks
Use the Vertical and Alignment.Horizontal properties to specify the vertical and horizontal alignment of cell data.
To set other alignment characteristics for a cell or range of cells (e.g., indent, text rotation, values indicating whether the text should be wrapped and shrunk in a cell), use the corresponding properties of the Alignment object. Access this object via the Formatting.Alignment property.
- To specify the data alignment of an individual cell, access the Alignment object using the cell's Formatting.Alignment property directly.
- To specify the data alignment of a cell range, modify the Alignment object within the CellRange.BeginUpdateFormatting - CellRange.EndUpdateFormatting method pair.
- To share the same alignment settings between multiple cells in one step, apply the style with the specified alignment to the required cells. To specify the alignment for a cell style, access the Style object from the IWorkbook.Styles collection and use this style's Formatting.Alignment property within the Formatting.BeginUpdate-Formatting.EndUpdate paired methods to access and modify the Alignment object.
For examples on how to specify formatting for an individual cell and cell range or modify a style, refer to the How to: Format a Cell or Range of Cells or How to: Create or Modify a Style document, respectively.
Examples
This example demonstrates how to specify the alignment of cell content by modifying the Alignment object accessed via the Formatting.Alignment property of the Cell object.

Cell cellA1 = worksheet.Cells["A1"];

cellA2.Alignment.Horizontal = SpreadsheetHorizontalAlignment.Center;
cellA2.Alignment.Vertical = SpreadsheetVerticalAlignment.Center;
Cell cellA3 = worksheet.Cells["A3"];
cellA3.Value = "Left and bottom, indent";
cellA3.Alignment.Indent = 1;
Cell cellB1 = worksheet.Cells["B1"];
cellB1.Value = "The Alignment.ShrinkToFit property is applied";
cellB1.Alignment.ShrinkToFit = true;
Cell cellB2 = worksheet.Cells["B2"];
cellB2.Value = "Rotated Cell Contents";
cellB2.Alignment.Horizontal = SpreadsheetHorizontalAlignment.Center;
cellB2.Alignment.Vertical = SpreadsheetVerticalAlignment.Center;
cellB2.Alignment.RotationAngle = 15;
Cell cellB3 = worksheet.Cells["B3"];
cellB3.Value = "The Alignment.WrapText property is applied to wrap the text within a cell";
cellB3.Alignment.WrapText = true;
