What is new in this release?
The long awaited version of
Aspose.Cells for Java 17.1.0 has been released. This release includes many new features and enhancements along with some critical bug fixes that further improve the overall stability of the API. The LoadFilter class allows customizing the loading process as per the properties of the Worksheet. In order to customize the loading process, one has to override the LoadFilter.startSheet method. Please note, there are just a few properties that can be used for a given worksheet object in this scenario because most of the data and properties have not been loaded yet. The available Worksheet properties are: Name, Index & VisibilityType. With the release, the API has added the setter for the LoadFilter.LoadDataFilterOptions property to replace the m_LoadDataFilterOptions instance variable. Users may change the LoadDataFilterOptions property in their own implementation of LoadFilter class to control the behavior of loading template files. Sometimes, application requirement could be to retrieve the worksheet’s paper size in the
unit of Inches, which can now be achieved using two properties. The PageSetup.PaperWidth and PageSetup.PaperHeight properties are of type double representing the paper width & height in the unit of inches while considering the page orientation. Aspose.Cells APIs store 17 significant digits of double values unlike Excel application which stores only 15 significant digits. Users can override this default behavior of Aspose.Cells APIs while using the newly exposed property. The code snippet on blog announcement page enforces the Aspose.Cells APIs to use 15 significant digits while storing double values to the spreadsheet files of type XLSX. It has has added a property to the WorkbookSettings class. The CheckCustomNumberFormat is useful in checking if the Style.Custom property has been set properly or not. In case the Style.Custom property has been set improperly, that is; the value does not correspond to valid
pattern then the Aspose.Cells for
Java APIs will throw CellsException with appropriate message. This new release has enhanced its core for more stability as well as fixed a few critical bugs. Moreover, there are numerous minor enhancements in order to improve the overall usage of the API. A few of the worth mentioning enhancements includes, ability to read the color of shape’s glow effect, Support for rendering gradient fill for WordArt objects while converting spreadsheets to HTML, support to load Excel 2016 chart types, enhanced HTML parsing engine for inline CSS, handled a few exceptions and many more.
