Two columns in TextBox

Hi there, we are using a TextBox formatted with two columns, but Aspose.Cells seems to ignore this property and saves it again with only one (see picture, original on the left, Aspose-saved version on the right). Is there a possibility to achieve this?

@fpre_lehner,

Thanks for the screenshot.

Please zip and attach your input Excel file and output Excel file via Aspose.Cells APIs, we will evaluate your issue soon. Moreover please try using latest version of the APIs (if you are not already using it).

@fpre_lehner,

Thanks for the template file.

Please notice, I am able to reproduce the issue as you mentioned by re-saving your template file via Aspose.Cells APIs. I found, if a TextBox is formatted with two columns, Aspose.Cells ignored this property and re-saved it but with only one column as per your attached screenshot:
e.g.
Sample code:

Workbook workbook = new Workbook("e:\\test2\\Input.xlsx");
workbook.Save("e:\\test2\\out1.xlsx");

I have logged a ticket with an id “CELLSNET-51574” for your issue. We will look into it soon.

Once we have an update on it, we will let you know.

@Amjad_Sahi Thank you very much! If possible, could you make sure that the two columns are also persistent while converting to PDF? Thanks in advance.

@fpre_lehner,

Please spare us little time to first analyze the issue in details. We will also consider to incorporate the fix in Excel to PDF rendering.

@fpre_lehner Hi,
It’s a bit difficult to fix this( CELLSNET-51578) without affecting other functionality. We may not be able to fix this issue anytime soon. We’re still working on it and will let you know as soon as we make progress.

Thank you for your reply and for investigating this issue. That’s a pity. We hope that you will find a solution in a timely manner anyway, since we are dependent on the PDF conversion. We would appreciate it if you could follow up on this problem.

@fpre_lehner,

Sure, we will keep you posted on latest updates once available on it.
