Aspose Cells for Java - cannot set column width

I’m trying to set a specific column width (actually I need to set a picture into cell, but even if I remove the picture code the problem persists).
This is the code:

    final Worksheet worksheet = this.xlsBuilder.getWorksheet();
    final Cell localCell = worksheet.getCells().get(row, column);
    localCell.setValue("");
    // final int index = worksheet.getPictures().add(row, column, fileStream);
    // final Picture pic = worksheet.getPictures().get(index);
    final double width = 2.35;
    final double widthCm = 5.979;
    final double height = 1.16;
    // pic.setHeightInch(height);
    // pic.setWidthInch(width);
    final Cells cells = worksheet.getCells();

    cells.setRowHeightInch(row, height);
    cells.setColumnWidth(column, widthCm);
    cells.setColumnWidthInch(column, width);
    cells.getColumns().get(column).setWidth(widthCm);
    // cells.setStandardWidthInch(width);

Please provide a solution.
