CustomWorkbookViews class

customWorkbookViews (Custom Workbook Views)

This element defines the collection of custom workbook views that are defined for this workbook. A customWorkbookView is similar in concept to a workbookView (§18.2.30) in that its attributes contain settings related to the way that the workbook should be displayed on a screen by a spreadsheet application.

[Note: Whilst a workbookView is intended to store the way the workbook window should be displayed by a spreadsheet application, customWorkbookView elements are intended to allow the user to switch between a selection of customWorkbookView items defining window and content display options. end note]

A customWorkbookView contains a greater number of settings (e.g., the presence of a formula bar; visibility of hidden data; whether or not to show comments) and is named.

[Example: A workbook which is used by two different departments might contain two customWorkbookView elements – one where the comments and hidden data are not shown, and one where they are. Users might switch between the customWorkbookView items according to the department in which they work. end example]

There is no limit on the number of custom views that can be contained within a SpreadsheetML instance.

[Example:

<customWorkbookViews>
  <customWorkbookView name="CustomView"    guid="{CE6681F1-E999-414D-8446-68A031534B57}" maximized="1" xWindow="1"    yWindow="1" windowWidth="1024" windowHeight="547" activeSheetId="1"/>
</customWorkbookViews>

end example]

[Note: The W3C XML Schema definition of this element’s content model (CT_CustomWorkbookViews) is located in §A.2. end note]
