is text overflow will work in phpspreadsheet?

Question

The problem I am facing is, I am not able to set cell value as text-overflow (not clipped or wrapped). It is always hiding with a red triangle sign in Libre Calc.

I have a sample .xls sheet that I need to replicate dynamically. I got successful in generating the same .xls sheet using PHPSpreadsheet library in Codeigniter framework.

$spreadsheet = new Spreadsheet();

$sheet = $spreadsheet->getActiveSheet();

$sheet->setTitle('1');

$sheet->getPageSetup()->setOrientation(\PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Worksheet\PageSetup::ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);
$sheet->getPageSetup()->setPaperSize(\PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Worksheet\PageSetup::PAPERSIZE_A4);

$query_date = $data['month_selected'].' '.$data['year_selected'];

$date = new DateTime($query_date);

$date->modify('first day of this month');
$firstday= $date->format('n/j/Y');

$date->modify('last day of this month');
$lastday= $date->format('n/j/Y');

$xrow = 1;
$sheet->setCellValue('A' . $xrow, 'Attedence for the Period Beginning From '.$firstday.' TO '.$lastday)->getStyle('I' . $xrow)->applyFromArray($borderArrayRowOther);

The Text in the cell always gets hide when I see it in office 365 and Libre Calc. I need to double click to show it fully. But I need it shows fully.

You have to use

$spreadsheet->getActiveSheet()->getStyle('A1')->getAlignment()->setWrapText(true);

For more Information see documentation .

According to this comit this comit this will be automaticly included in future releases.

Maybe you must/will use some autofit then take a look to this code .
