<h1>Group data</h1>
|
|
<p>The ability to group rows and columns as well as create an outline allows you to make it easier to work with a spreadsheet that contains a large amount of data. You can collapse or expand grouped rows and columns to display the necessary data only. It's also possible to create the multi-level structure of grouped rows/columns. When necessary, you can ungroup the previously grouped rows or columns.</p>
|
|
<h3>Group rows and columns</h3>
|
|
<p>To group rows or columns:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Select the cell range that you need to group.</li>
|
|
<li>Switch to the <b>Data</b> tab and use one of the necessary options on the top toolbar:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>click the <img alt="Group icon" src="../images/groupicon.png" /> <b>Group</b> button, then choose the <b>Rows</b> or <b>Columns</b> option in the <b>Group</b> window that appears and click <b>OK</b>,
|
|
<p><img alt="Group window" src="../images/groupewindow.png" /></p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>click the downwards arrow below the <img alt="Group icon" src="../images/groupicon.png" /> <b>Group</b> button and choose the <b>Group rows</b> option from the menu,</li>
|
|
<li>click the downwards arrow below the <img alt="Group icon" src="../images/groupicon.png" /> <b>Group</b> button and choose the <b>Group columns</b> option from the menu.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>The selected rows or columns will be grouped and the created outline will be displayed to the left of the rows or/and above the columns.</p>
|
|
<p><img alt="Grouped rows and columns" src="../images/groupedrows.png" /></p>
|
|
<p>To hide grouped rows/columns, click the <img alt="Collapse grouped rows icon" src="../images/collapserowsicon.png" /> <b>Collapse</b> icon. To show collapsed rows/columns, click the <img alt="Expand collapsed rows icon" src="../images/expandrowsicon.png" /> <b>Expand</b> icon.</p>
|
|
<h5>Change the outline</h5>
|
|
<p>To change the outline of grouped rows or columns, you can use options from the <b>Group</b> drop-down menu. The <b>Summary rows below detail</b> and <b>Summary columns to the right of detail</b> options are checked by default. They allow to change the location of the <b>Collapse</b> <img alt="Collapse grouped rows icon" src="../images/collapserowsicon.png" /> and <b>Expand</b> <img alt="Expand collapsed rows icon" src="../images/expandrowsicon.png" /> buttons:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Uncheck the <b>Summary rows below detail</b> option if you want to display the summary rows above the details.</li>
|
|
<li>Uncheck the <b>Summary columns to right of detail</b> option if you want to display the summary columns to the left of details.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h5>Create multi-level groups</h5>
|
|
<p>To create a multi-level structure, select a cell range within the previously created group of rows/columns, and group the newly selected range as described above. After that, you can hide and show groups by level using the icons with the level number: <img alt="Level number icons" src="../images/levelnumbericons.png" />.</p>
|
|
<p>For example, if you create a nested group within the parent group, three levels will be available. It's possible to create up to 8 levels.</p>
|
|
<p><img alt="Multi-level structure" src="../images/multilevelstructure.png" /></p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Click the first level <img alt="First level icon" src="../images/firstlevelicon.png" /> icon to switch to the level which hides all grouped data:
|
|
<p><img alt="First level" src="../images/firstlevel.png" /></p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Click the second level <img alt="Second level icon" src="../images/secondlevelicon.png" /> icon to switch to the level which displays details of the parent group, but hides the nested group data:
|
|
<p><img alt="Second level" src="../images/secondlevel.png" /></p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Click the third level <img alt="Third level icon" src="../images/thirdlevelicon.png" /> icon to switch to the level which displays all details:
|
|
<p><img alt="Third level" src="../images/thirdlevel.png" /></p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>It's also possible to use the <img alt="Collapse grouped rows icon" src="../images/collapserowsicon.png" /> <b>Collapse</b> and <img alt="Expand collapsed rows icon" src="../images/expandrowsicon.png" /> <b>Expand</b> icons within the outline to display or hide the data corresponding to a certain level.</p>
|
|
<h3>Ungroup previously grouped rows and columns</h3>
|
|
<p>To ungroup previously grouped rows or columns:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Select the range of grouped cells that you need to ungroup.</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Switch to the <b>Data</b> tab and use one of the necessary options at the top toolbar:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>click the <img alt="Ungroup icon" src="../images/ungroupicon.png" /> <b>Ungroup</b> button, then choose the <b>Rows</b> or <b>Columns</b> option in the <b>Group</b> window that appears and click <b>OK</b>,
|

|
|
<li>click the downwards arrow below the <img alt="Group icon" src="../images/ungroupicon.png" /> <b>Ungroup</b> button and choose the <b>Clear outline</b> option from the menu to clear the outline of rows and columns without removing existing groups.</li>
