    Wrap Text

    Selecting Wrap Text causes text that is too long to fit within the selected cells to be wrapped into multiple lines.

    Selecting this option when the selected cells are already wrapped returns the text in those cells to a single line.

    Format Cells Formats the color, font name, font style, and font size of a block of cells, individual cells, rows, columns, or the entire spreadsheet. It also allows you to add or remove decimal places and thousand separators. For more information, see Formatting an Answerset.

    Freeze Column(s)

    Selecting this item “freezes” the left most columns, preventing them from being scrolled off the screen when you scroll a wide Answerset to the right. All columns up to the current column or cell are frozen.

    The default is off.
