Adding a Title and Subtitle to a Sheet

You can add a specially formatted area at the top of the component that includes a title, a subtitle or both. A title is set for the component, and a separate subtitle can be set for each sheet. The following figure illustrates a Spread component with a title and a subtitle set for the sheet.

Spread control with red grid lines

The title is set using the TitleInfo property at the FpSpread level. The subtitle is set using the TitleInfo property at the sheet level.

Use the TitleInfo class and its members to display and customize the title and subtitles.

Using a Shortcut

Set the properties of the TitleInfo class.
