About CellFormat

The cellFormat component is a container of other layout elements that are used to specify additional formatting for cells in a rowLayout. For example, you can set vertical or horizontal alignment, height, and width of the cell contents, and the number of cells to span horizontally or vertically. You can also specify which cells will be header cells in a table.

Table with 3 rows 3 columns, columnspan in 2nd and 3rd rows

Automatic text wrapping in a cell is enabled by default . To disable automatic text wrapping, use the wrappingDisabled attribute.

To provide an abbreviated form of the cell contents, use the shortText attribute. When appropriate, user agents render the abbreviated names in place of the cell contents.
