Comments

The MergeWithNext property returns whether this cell is eligible to merge with the next adjacent cell.

For cell merging to take effect, this cell must have its EvaluatedMergeWithNext property set to True. The merged cell (the next adjacent cell) must have its property EvaluatedAllowMergeFromPrevious set to True to indicate that it is a candidate for cell merging. In addition, all subordinate cells must be empty.

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

The EvaluatedMergeWithNext property can be used to define the status for this cell by evaluating the default settings.

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