Cell Style
The cell style
refers to the way the text of a cell
appears on screen.
This includes the font
of the text, if it is bold, italicized or underlined,
its size
and sometimes the order in which the characters
are written on screen. The cell style also sets its orientation and alignment.
Cell styles are used to quickly format the text in cells. There are several styles already available in Calc, and it covers formats for headings, column headers and results for spreadsheet calculations.
Unlike other style categories
the cell style
is only limited for use in Calc since it only applies for spreadsheet cells.
You can actually create or modify cell styles in OpenOffice.org. Please refer to the links below for more information.
