For a given worksheet
of type Aspose.Cells.Worksheet
, the value of cell can not parse HTML enrich text properly.
Approach:
string value = "This is test<div><ul><li>Item 1<ul><li>item 1.1</li><li>item 1.2</li></ul></li><li>Item 2<ul><li>item 2.1</li><li>item 2.2</li></ul></li></ul></div>";
worksheet.Cells[1,1].HtmlString = value;
Expected output in excel cell:
This is test
But, actual output in excel cell is not indented properly. See attached screenshot.
Value for Font: <Font Style="FONT-FAMILY: Arial;FONT-SIZE: 9pt;COLOR: #262626;TEXT-ALIGN: left;Background-Color: #f2f2f2;"></Font>

How can we resolve this ? Is it possible from Aspose Cells ?
Looking forward for your help in this issue.
@riteshshrestha,
Could you please insert a few line breaks in your HTML string, so Aspose.Cells could work properly. See the following sample code that may work Ok:
e.g.
Sample code:
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
string value = "This is test<br><div><ul><li>Item 1<br><ul><li>item 1.1</li><li>item 1.2</li></ul></li><li>Item 2<br><ul><li>item 2.1</li><li>item 2.2</li></ul></li></ul></div>";
//Insert the HTML string into B2 cell
worksheet.Cells[1,1].HtmlString = value;
//Extend column width a bit
worksheet.Cells.SetColumnWidth(1,17);
//Aut-fit second row and second column
worksheet.AutoFitRow(1);
worksheet.AutoFitColumn(1);
workbook.Save("g:\\test2\\out1.xlsx");
Hope, this helps a bit.

You are welcome. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
In my opinion you need to experiment with different methods of inserting HTML rich text into Aspose Cells. This might involve manipulating the HTML content before inserting it into Aspose Cells or using different APIs or options provided by Aspose Cells for HTML conversion.
We have already resolved the issue raised by @riteshshrestha. The fixed will be published in this week or in the next week. Generally, Aspose.Cells follows MS Excel standards and specifications when parsing or rendering HTML. You can open the HTML files directly in MS Excel to check how they look, and you can expect Aspose.Cells to render the same display. Additionally, one can test some HTML strings directly into Aspose.Cells to check if they work. If not, one can make some tweaks (as I initially proposed adding manual line breaks) to accommodate them.
