Java: Hide or Show Gridlines in Excel

2022-06-09 09:27:00 Written by Koohji

Gridlines are horizontal and vertical faint lines that differentiate between cells in a worksheet. All Excel worksheets have gridlines by default, but sometimes you may need to remove the gridlines as they might interfere with your work. In this article, you will learn how to programmatically show or hide/remove gridlines in an Excel worksheet using Spire.XLS for Java.

Install Spire.XLS for Java

First, you're required to add the Spire.Xls.jar file as a dependency in your Java program. The JAR file can be downloaded from this link. If you use Maven, you can easily import the JAR file in your application by adding the following code to your project's pom.xml file.

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>com.e-iceblue</id>
        <name>e-iceblue</name>
        <url>https://repo.e-iceblue.com/nexus/content/groups/public/</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>
<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>e-iceblue</groupId>
        <artifactId>spire.xls</artifactId>
        <version>16.8.4</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Hide or Show Gridlines in Excel

The detailed steps are as follows.

  • Create a Workbook object.
  • Load a sample Excel document using Workbook.loadFromFile() method.
  • Get a specified worksheet using Workbook.getWorksheets().get() method.
  • Hide or show gridlines in the specified worksheet using Worksheet.setGridLinesVisible() method.
  • Save the result file using Workbook.saveToFile() method.
  • Java
import com.spire.xls.ExcelVersion;
import com.spire.xls.Workbook;
import com.spire.xls.Worksheet;

public class HideOrShowGridlines {

    public static void main(String[] args) {

        //Create a Workbook object
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

        //Load a sample Excel document
        workbook.loadFromFile("E:\\Files\\Test.xlsx");

        //Get the first worksheet
        Worksheet worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

        //Hide gridlines
        worksheet.setGridLinesVisible(false);

        ////Show gridlines
        //worksheet.setGridLinesVisible(true);

        //Save the document
        workbook.saveToFile("HideGridlines.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2016);
    }
}

Firstly view the sample document:

Java extract text from SmartArt in PowerPoint

import com.spire.presentation.Presentation;
import com.spire.presentation.diagrams.ISmartArt;
import java.io.*;

public class extractTextFromSmartArt {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Presentation presentation = new Presentation();
        presentation.loadFromFile("Sample.pptx");

        //Create a new TXT File
        String result = "output/extractTextFromSmartArt.txt";
        File file=new File(result);
        if(file.exists()){
            file.delete();
        }
        file.createNewFile();
        FileWriter fw =new FileWriter(file,true);
        BufferedWriter bw =new BufferedWriter(fw);

        bw.write("Below is extracted text from SmartArt:" + "\r\n");

        //Traverse through all the slides of the PPT file and find the SmartArt shapes.
        for (int i = 0; i < presentation.getSlides().getCount(); i++)
        {
            for (int j = 0; j < presentation.getSlides().get(i).getShapes().getCount(); j++)
            {
                if (presentation.getSlides().get(i).getShapes().get(j) instanceof ISmartArt)
                {
                    ISmartArt smartArt = (ISmartArt)presentation.getSlides().get(i).getShapes().get(j);

                    //Extract text from SmartArt and append to the StringBuilder object.
                    for (int k = 0; k < smartArt.getNodes().getCount(); k++)
                    {
                        bw.write(smartArt.getNodes().get(k).getTextFrame().getText() + "\r\n");
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        bw.flush();
        bw.close();
        fw.close();

    }
}
