How to resize comments in XlsIO?
Comments are used as notes for a cell in worksheet. The comment shape size can be resized by changing the height and width. XlsIO provides support for changing the width and height of the comments.
To resize the comment, please set height and width of the comment like following code snippet.
//Add comment in cell 'A1' ICommentShape comment = worksheet["A1"].AddComment(); comment.Text = "Resized comment"; // Height and Width measured in points comment.Height = 100; comment.Width = 100; comment.IsVisible = true;
To know more about comments in XlsIO, please refer the documentation.
The following C#/VB.NET complete code snippet shows how to resize comments in XlsIO.
using Syncfusion.XlsIO;

{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Instantiate the spreadsheet creation engine
using (ExcelEngine excelEngine = new ExcelEngine())
{
IApplication application = excelEngine.Excel;
//Create workbook
IWorkbook workbook = application.Workbooks.Create(1);
IWorksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
//Add comment in cell 'A1'
ICommentShape comment = worksheet["A1"].AddComment();
comment.Text = "Resized comment";
// Height and Width measured in points
comment.Height = 100;
comment.Width = 100;
comment.IsVisible = true;
//Save and close the workbook
Stream stream = File.Create("Output.xlsx");
workbook.SaveAs(stream);
