What is the Set Row Height Action?

The Set Row Height Action changes the height of one or more rows in an Excel workbook.

Creating a Set Row Height Action

Drag and drop the Selector onto the Targets list in the target workbook to display the available target options. Continue to drag the Selector to the Row option, expanding the available Row Options . Choose the desired row option:

  • Current Row- Performs the action to the active row in the workbook
  • Exact Row- Performs the action to a row specified by the user
  • Row Range- Performs the action to a defined row range

Note: An Exact Row can also be accessed by targeting it directly. For more information about modifying a target column, read the Understanding Excel Targets section of the Understanding Targets article.

If this is the first time the workbook was targeted, Nintex RPA LE will attempt to create a workbook connection automatically. (For more information about Microsoft Excel workbook connections, read the Excel Connections article.)

A preview of the target row is displayed along with a button that allows you to modify the row to target , per the Row Options (above).  (For more information about modifying a target row, read the Understanding Excel Targets section of the Understanding Targets article.)
