Changelog

This is a changelog for Excel::Writer::XLSX.

The format is based on Keep a Changelog.

[1.15] - 2025-11-12

Added

• Add the option to position custom data labels in the same way that the data labels can be positioned for the entire series.

• Add border, fill, gradient and pattern formatting options for chart titles and also chart axis titles.

• Added documentation for the Worksheet autofit() method and the Utility xl_cell_autofit_width() function.

Fixed

• Fix failed match for range string in conditional format. Strings used in a cell equality must be quoted. In order to ensure this there is a check for non-range/non-numeric strings. However this test wasn't anchored properly and gave a false positive.

  Issue #312.

• Fixed an issue where set_row() with the default height of 15 was ignored if set_default_row() was also used.

• Fixed issue with 0 DPI in PNG images.

[1.14] - 2024-10-21

Fixed

• Cleaned up release tarball to remove editor dot files.

[1.13] - 2024-10-13

Fixed

• Fixed issue with html color for border colors.

  Issue #302 and #305.

[1.12] - 2024-02-26

Added

• Added support for embedding images into worksheets with worksheet embed_image(). This can be useful if you are building up a spreadsheet of products with a column of images for each product. Embedded images move with the cell so they can be used in worksheet tables or data ranges that will be sorted or filtered. This functionality is the equivalent of Excel's menu option to insert an image using the option to "Place in Cell" which is available in Excel 365 versions from 2023 onwards.

• Added support for Excel 365 IMAGE() future.

• Added trendline equation formatting for Charts.

• Added support for leader lines to all chart types.

• Added chart option to display N/A as empty cells.

• Add support for invert_if_negative color option in Charts.

• Added worksheet very_hidden() method to hide a worksheet in a way that it can only be unhidden by VBA. Feature Request #228.

Fixed

• Fixed indentation and alignment property mismatch. Fix issue where a horizontal alignment format was ignored if the indentation was also set.

[1.11] - 2023-03-19

Added

• Added support for simulated worksheet autofit().

• Refactored internal column property handling to allow column ranges to be overridden (a common UX expectation).

• Add quote_prefix format property.

Fixed

• Add fix for forward/backward slash issue on Windows perl builds. Possibly introduced by a change in File::Find. Issue #284

• Fix for duplicate number formats. Issue #283

• Add fix for worksheets with tables and background images.

• Replace/fix the worksheet protection password algorithm so that is works correctly for strings over 24 chars.

[1.10] - 2022-12-30

Added

• Add support for new Excel 365 dynamic functions.

[1.09] - 2021-05-14

Added

• Added support for background images in worksheets. See set_background().

• Added support for GIF image files (and in Excel 365, animated GIF files).

• Added support for pixel sizing in set_row() and set_column() via new functions called set_row_pixels() and set_column_pixels().

• Added initial support for dynamic arrays in formulas.

[1.08] - 2021-03-31

Added

• Added ability to add accessibility options "description" and "decorative" to images via insert_image().

• Added the workbook read_only_recommended() method to set the Excel "Read-only Recommended" option that is available when saving a file.

• Added option to set a chart crossing to 'min' as well as the existing 'max' option. The 'min' option isn't available in the Excel interface but can be enabled via VBA.

• Added option to unprotect ranges in protected worksheets.

• Added check, and warning, for worksheet tables with no data row. Either with or without a header row.

• Added ignore_errors() worksheet method to ignore Excel worksheet errors/warnings in user defined ranges.

Fixed

• Fixed issue where pattern formats without colors where given a default black fill color.

• Fix issue where custom chart data labels didn't inherit the position for the data labels in the series.

[1.07] - 2020-08-06

[1.06] - 2020-08-03

• Fix for issue with default worksheet VBA codenames.

Removed

• Removed error in add_worksheet() for sheet name "History" which is a reserved name in English version of Excel. However, this is an allowed worksheet name in some Excel variants so the warning has been turned into a documentation note instead.

[1.03] - 2019-12-26

Added

• Fix for duplicate images being copied to an Excel::Writer::XLSX file. Excel uses an optimization where it only stores one copy of a repeated/duplicate image in a workbook. Excel::Writer::XLSX didn't do this which meant that the file size would increase when then was a large number of repeated images. This release fixes that issue and replicates Excel's behavior.

[1.02] - 2019-11-07

Added

• Added support for hyperlinks in worksheet images.

• Fix for structured reference in chart ranges.

[1.00] - 2019-04-07

Fixed

• Fixed issue where images that started in hidden rows/columns weren't placed correctly in the worksheet.

• Fixed the mime-type reported by system "file(1)". The mime-type reported by "file --mime-type"/magic was incorrect for Excel::Writer::XLSX files since it expected the "[Content_types]" to be the first file in the zip container.

Added
