@Adhirath,

Thanks for your feedback and providing further details.

We will evaluate you mentioned missing attributes in Range to JSON export and get back to you.

16

@Adhirath
1,

We will only add address property because it will include RowCount and ColumnCount.
2, we will check how to export conditional formats and table setting to json.

@Adhirath
Thank you for your feedback. We will notify you promptly of any updates to the exported properties. Additionally, regarding the error you encountered, we need your sample file to locate the issue. Would you like to provide your sample files and test code? We will check it soon.

19

nevermind the range was corrupted. Will I get accurate values if I loop through the cells to get cell properties?

20

@Adhirath
If you traverse all the cells yourself, you can obtain all the public information of the cells. Please refer to the following document.

Hi guys need your help here, I wrote code to convert Aspose to Json as accurately as I could there are still a few properties missing but I wanted someone to have a look and correct the code if they find any issues. Also there are a few properties that I havecommented out which are required but I cannot find those in Aspose. I am attaching the code in a file, I request you to do the same when responding. Thanks!

@Adhirath
We will check them soon.

@Adhirath
Please refer to the attached sample code. AsposeToExcelJsHelper.zip (3.7 KB)

Also, please check the following four attributes. Which setting in the Excel interface did you mean to correspond to? If you can provide a screenshot and highlight the location, it will be very helpful for us to locate the attribute parameters. We will check it soon.

//FillTintAndShade = null,
//AutoIndent = false, 
//UseStandardHeight = true, 
//UseStandardWidth = true,

Hi guys I tried it out. first of all really appreciate the help. secondly, I ran into an issue with number formats. So excel js api uses the following formats and more(custom) , the question is how can I get the same using aspose-
“numberFormat”: [
[
“General”
],
[
“0.00”
],
[
“$ #,##0.00”
],
[
“($* #,##0.00);($* (#,##0.00);($* "-"??);(@_)”
],
[
“m/d/yyyy”
],
[
“[$-x-sysdate]dddd, mmmm dd, yyyy”
],
[
“[$-x-systime]h:mm:ss AM/PM”
],
[
“0.00%”
],
[
“# ?/?”
],
[
“0.00E+00”
],
[
“@”
],
[
“#,##0.00”
]
],
the sequence is the following-
general,
number,
currency,
accounting,
short date,
long date,
time,
percentage,
fraction,
scientific,
Text,
Custom(I have only used one custom format there are quite a few available, let me know if more info is required)

@Adhirath
Aspose.Cells component offers some built-in number formats to configure the display formats of the numbers and dates. These built-in number formats can be setted and getted by using the Number property of the Style object. All built-in number formats are given unique numeric values. Please refer to the following document.

Of course, if you are not satisfied with the built-in number format, you can also set and get a custom number format using Style.Custom property. Please refer to the following document.

Regarding the several numerical formats you have listed, you can also refer to the following relevant documents.

is there a way for me to get the format string(3rd column) mentioned here for a given cell-
Number Settings|Documentation.

27

@Adhirath
You need to traverse the built-in number format to obtain the number format string. Please refer to the following example code.

private string GetBuiltinNumberFormatsString(Style style)
{
    int number = style.Number;
    switch (number)
    {
        case 0:
            {
                if (style.Custom == "")
                {
                    return "General";
                }
                else
                {
                    return style.Custom;
                }
            }
        case 1: return "0"; 
        case 2: return "0.00";
        case 3: return "#,##0";
        case 4: return "#,##0.00";
        case 5: return "$#,##0;-$#,##0";
        case 6: return "$#,##0;[Red]$-#,##0";
        case 7: return "$#,##0.00;-$#,##0.00";
        case 8: return "$#,##0.00;[Red]$-#,##0.00";
        case 9: return "0%";
        case 10: return "0.00%";
        case 11: return "0.00E+00";
        case 12: return "# ?/?";
        case 13: return "# /";
        case 14: return "m/d/yyyy";
        case 15: return "d-mmm-yy";
        case 16: return "d-mmm";
        case 17: return "mmm-yy";
        case 18: return "h:mm AM/PM";
        case 19: return "h:mm:ss AM/PM";
        case 20: return "h:mm";
        case 21: return "h:mm:ss";
        case 22: return "m/d/yy h:mm";
        case 37: return "#,##0;-#,##0";
        case 38: return "#,##0;[Red]-#,##0";
        case 39: return "#,##0.00;-#,##0.00";
        case 40: return "#,##0.00;[Red]-#,##0.00";
        case 41: return "_ * #,##0_ ;_ * “_ ;_ @_";
        case 42: return "_ $* #,##0_ ;_ $* “_ ;_ @_";
        case 43: return "_ * #,##0.00_ ;_ * “??_ ;_ @_";
        case 44: return "_ $* #,##0.00_ ;_ $* “??_ ;_ @_";
        case 45: return "mm:ss";
        case 46: return "h :mm:ss";
        case 47: return "mm:ss.0";
        case 48: return "##0.0E+00";
        case 49: return "@";
        
        default: return style.Custom;
    }
}

Hope helps a bit.

got you, thanks!

AutoIndent - Specifies if text is automatically indented when text alignment is set to equal distribution.

FillTintAndShade - Specifies a double that lightens or darkens a color for the range fill. The value is between -1 (darkest) and 1 (brightest), with 0 for the original color. A null value indicates that the range doesn’t have uniform tintAndShade settings.

UseStandardHeight - Determines if the row height of the Range object equals the standard height of the sheet. Returns true if the row height of the Range object equals the standard height of the sheet. Returns null if the range contains more than one row and the rows aren’t all the same height. Returns false otherwise. Note: This property is only intended to be set to true . Setting it to false has no effect.

UseStandardWidth - Specifies if the column width of the Range object equals the standard width of the sheet. Returns true if the column width of the Range object equals the standard width of the sheet. Returns null if the range contains more than one column and the columns aren’t all the same height. Returns false otherwise. Note: This property is only intended to be set to true . Setting it to false has no effect.

Also, please check the following three attributes. Which setting in the Excel interface did you mean to correspond to? If you can provide a screenshot and highlight the location, it will be very helpful for us to locate the attribute parameters. We will check it soon.

Console.WriteLine($"Key:");
Console.WriteLine($"subField:");
