[news.eclipse.technology.nebula] Re: Grid Row Span

[Chris Gross <chris.gross@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mark,

Currently the Grid only does column spanning (i.e. horizontal) but not 
row spanning (i.e. vertical).  That is a feature I'd like to add but I 
don't have a timeframe for it.

Regards,

p.s.  I don't believe Excel even allows L shaped cells.  AFAIK it only 
allows rectangular merges.
