Method Details
load(options)
Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync()
before reading the properties.
load(options?: PowerPoint.Interfaces.TableCellLoadOptions): PowerPoint.TableCell;
Parameters
Provides options for which properties of the object to load.
Returns
load(propertyNames)
Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync()
before reading the properties.
load(propertyNames?: string | string[]): PowerPoint.TableCell;
Parameters
- propertyNames
-
string | string[]
A comma-delimited string or an array of strings that specify the properties to load.
Returns
load(propertyNamesAndPaths)
Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync()
before reading the properties.
load(propertyNamesAndPaths?: {
select?: string;
expand?: string;
}): PowerPoint.TableCell;
Parameters
- propertyNamesAndPaths
-
{ select?: string; expand?: string; }
propertyNamesAndPaths.select
is a comma-delimited string that specifies the properties to load, and propertyNamesAndPaths.expand
is a comma-delimited string that specifies the navigation properties to load.
Returns
resize(rowCount, columnCount)
Note
This API is provided as a preview for developers and may change based on feedback that we receive. Do not use this API in a production environment.
Resizes the table cell to span across a specified number of rows and columns. If rowCount or columnCount are greater than 1, the cell will become a merged area. If the cell is already a merged area and rowCount and columnCount are set to 1, the cell will no longer be a merged area.
resize(rowCount: number, columnCount: number): void;
Parameters
- rowCount
-
number
The number of rows the cell will span across. Must be greater than 0.
- columnCount
-
number
The number of columns the cell will span across. Must be greater than 0.
Returns
void
Remarks
split(rowCount, columnCount)
Note
This API is provided as a preview for developers and may change based on feedback that we receive. Do not use this API in a production environment.
Splits the cell into the specified number of rows and columns.
split(rowCount: number, columnCount: number): void;
Parameters
- rowCount
-
number
The number of rows to split into. Must be greater than 0.
- columnCount
-
number
The number of columns to split into. Must be greater than 0.
Returns
void
Remarks
toJSON()
Overrides the JavaScript toJSON()
method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify()
. (JSON.stringify
, in turn, calls the toJSON
method of the object that's passed to it.) Whereas the original PowerPoint.TableCell
object is an API object, the toJSON
method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as PowerPoint.Interfaces.TableCellData
) that contains shallow copies of any loaded child properties from the original object.
toJSON(): PowerPoint.Interfaces.TableCellData;
