Example

The following examples use the expected method.

Javascript

var nCondition = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.numberCondition);
nCondition.compareType(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.GeneralComparisonOperators.greaterThan);
nCondition.expected(5);
var validator = new GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.DefaultDataValidator(nCondition);
validator.type(GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.CriteriaType.custom);
activeSheet.getCell(0, 0, GC.Spread.Sheets.SheetArea.viewport).validator(validator);
spread.options.highlightInvalidData = true;
activeSheet.setValue(0, 0, 5);

Javascript

var nCondition = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.dateCondition);
nCondition.compareType(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.DateCompareType.before);
nCondition.expected(new Date(2012, 11, 31));
var validator = new GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.DefaultDataValidator(nCondition);
validator.type(GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.CriteriaType.custom);
activeSheet.getCell(0, 0, GC.Spread.Sheets.SheetArea.viewport).validator(validator);
spread.options.highlightInvalidData = true;
activeSheet.setValue(0, 0, new Date(2012, 12, 12));

Javascript

var nCondition = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.textCondition);
nCondition.compareType(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.TextCompareType.contains);
nCondition.expected("test");
var validator = new GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.DefaultDataValidator(nCondition);
validator.type(GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.CriteriaType.custom);
activeSheet.getCell(0, 0, GC.Spread.Sheets.SheetArea.viewport).validator(validator);
spread.options.highlightInvalidData = true;
activeSheet.setValue(0, 0, "testing");

Javascript

var textLengthCondition = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.textLengthCondition);
textLengthCondition.compareType(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.GeneralComparisonOperators.greaterThan);
textLengthCondition.expected(5);
var validator = new GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.DefaultDataValidator(textLengthCondition);
validator.type(GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.CriteriaType.custom);
activeSheet.getCell(0, 0, GC.Spread.Sheets.SheetArea.viewport).validator(validator);
spread.options.highlightInvalidData = true;
activeSheet.setValue(0, 0, "abcf");

Javascript

var nCondition = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.uniqueCondition);
nCondition.expected(true);
nCondition.ranges([new GC.Spread.Sheets.Range(0, 0, 5, 1)]);
var validator = new GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.DefaultDataValidator(nCondition);
validator.type(GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.CriteriaType.custom);
activeSheet.getCell(0, 0, GC.Spread.Sheets.SheetArea.viewport).validator(validator);
spread.options.highlightInvalidData = true;
activeSheet.setValue(0, 0, 5);

Javascript

var nCondition = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.cellValueCondition);
nCondition.compareType(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.GeneralComparisonOperators.greaterThan);
nCondition.expected(4);
var validator = new GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.DefaultDataValidator(nCondition);
validator.type(GC.Spread.Sheets.DataValidation.CriteriaType.custom);
activeSheet.getCell(0, 0, GC.Spread.Sheets.SheetArea.viewport).validator(validator);
spread.options.highlightInvalidData = true;
activeSheet.setValue(0, 0, 5);

Javascript

activeSheet.suspendPaint();
var rowFilter = new GC.Spread.Sheets.Filter.HideRowFilter(new GC.Spread.Sheets.Range(-1, 0, -1, 1));
activeSheet.rowFilter(rowFilter);
activeSheet.getCell(0, 0).value("A1").backColor("blue");
activeSheet.getCell(1, 0).value("A2").backColor("yellow");
activeSheet.getCell(2, 0).value("A3").backColor("red");
activeSheet.getCell(3, 0).value("A4").backColor("green");
activeSheet.getCell(4, 0).value("A5").backColor("yellow");
var nCondition = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.colorCondition);
nCondition.compareType(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ColorCompareType.backgroundColor);
nCondition.expected("yellow");
var filter = activeSheet.rowFilter();
filter.addFilterItem(0, nCondition);
filter.filter(0);
activeSheet.resumePaint();

Javascript

activeSheet.suspendPaint();
for (var row = 0; row < 25; row++) {
    activeSheet.setValue(row, 0, row, GC.Spread.Sheets.SheetArea.viewport);
}
var rowFilter = new GC.Spread.Sheets.Filter.HideRowFilter(new GC.Spread.Sheets.Range(0, 0, 25, 1));
activeSheet.rowFilter(rowFilter);
var top10Con = new GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Condition(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.ConditionType.top10Condition);
top10Con.type(GC.Spread.Sheets.ConditionalFormatting.Top10ConditionType.top);
top10Con.expected(10);
var filter = activeSheet.rowFilter();
filter.addFilterItem(0, top10Con);
filter.filter(0);
activeSheet.resumePaint();
