Comments

The EvaluatedAllowMergeFromUpper property returns whether this cell is eligible to be used for cell merging by the cell above.

For cell merging to take effect, the upper cell merging into the this cell must have its EvaluatedMergeWithLower property set to True. The merged cell (this cell) must have its property EvaluatedAllowMergeFromUpper set to True to indicate that it is a candidate for cell merging. In addition, all cells involved in cell merging must must either have the same cell text or all subordinate cells must be empty.

SftTree/NET 2.0: The control's MergeStyle property determines whether empty cells or cells with the same cell text are candidates for cell merging.

SftTree/NET 2.0: The default settings for cell merging can be defined using these properties: Headers.AllowMergeFromUpperDefault for column headers, Footers.AllowMergeFromUpperDefault for column footers and ColumnClass.AllowMergeFromUpperDefault for each column.

The AllowMergeFromUpper property can be used to define the status for this cell without evaluating the default settings.

SftTabs/NET 6.0: Cell merging is not used in this product and this property has no effect.
