Update history for ReoGrid v4.

Last updated: April 24, 2026
Latest
v4.4.0
April 24, 2026
  • Improvement
    Faster rendering: cached cell style and border-drawing resources to speed up screen redraws.
  • Improvement
    Faster font handling: optimized font name lookup and font object retrieval for smoother behavior when displaying large numbers of cells.
  • Improvement
    Faster formula recalculation: redesigned the dependency-tracking algorithm, achieving roughly 2.7× speedup in cases where a single cell is referenced by many other cells.
  • Improvement
    Faster sorting: significantly improved sort performance on large datasets by suspending unnecessary processing during the sort.
  • Improvement
    Faster conditional formatting: optimized evaluation timing — instead of recalculating on every cell edit, conditional formats are now processed in batch at render time.
  • Improvement
    Faster bulk data operations: improved performance of range data assignment, paste, and undo operations by suppressing screen updates and event firing during batch processing.
  • Fix
    Formulas: expressions with a leading plus sign such as =+D25-F8-F14 now behave the same as in Excel.
  • Fix
    Formulas: references with parentheses or whitespace in sheet names (e.g., 'BS(USD)'!B3, 'My Sheet'!A1) are now handled correctly.
  • Fix
    Sorting: formulas now correctly move along with their rows during sort (matching Excel behavior).
  • Fix
    Conditional formatting: fixed an issue where cell styles were not properly cleared when a conditional format was removed.
  • Change
    Removed the ConditionalStyleApplyCells property and the ConditionalStyleApplyCellCollection class.
  • New
    Added Worksheet.HasConditionalStyle(row, col) / HasConditionalStyle(CellPosition) to check whether a conditional style is applied to a given cell.
  • New
    Added the Cell.HasConditionalStyles property — a lightweight check that does not require materializing the style list.

v4.3.0

October 6, 2025
  • Change
    Renamed IsValidAddress to IsValidAddressFormat for clearer naming.
  • New
    Added Worksheet.IsValidAddress for stricter address string validation.
  • New
    Added IsValidCellAddress and IsValidRangeAddress to safely generate coordinate objects while validating address validity, with improved performance.
  • Improvement
    Improved robustness by using IsValidCellAddress / IsValidRangeAddress in ReoGrid internal processing.
  • Fix
    Fixed an issue where cells were not loaded correctly when zooming during Lazy Loading.
  • Improvement
    Enhanced the ADDRESS function to dynamically generate addresses from referenced cell values.
  • Improvement
    Enhanced the INDIRECT function for more accurate cell reference management and proper interpretation of lowercase addresses.
  • Fix
    Fixed an issue where row number text was not scaled during zoom operations.
  • Fix
    Fixed an issue where Excel files containing certain RichFormatText became corrupted when loaded and saved.
  • Change
    Changed the target framework from net8.0-windows7.0 to net8.0-windows, supporting more general .NET 8 Windows environments.
  • Improvement
    Improved recalculation after worksheet cloning.
    • Resolved cases where calculation results became inconsistent or outdated immediately after cloning sheets containing shared formulas and dependency chains.
    • Reorganized reference remapping and recalculation order during clone creation to guarantee an immediately consistent display.
    • In most cases, additional Recalculate calls in existing code are no longer necessary. Explicit recalculation is still possible when needed.
  • Improvement
    Improved reliability of border (Border) Excel output.
    • Normalized output to avoid writing empty/transparent borders as unnecessary "thin" styles.
    • Fixed mapping for Dotted / DashDot / DashDotDot / medium* styles to prevent shape corruption during re-import.
    • Resolved an issue where unnecessary opposite-side lines reappeared in corner cells when the "outside only" setting was applied.
  • Note
    If you were relying on inner lines that were unintentionally added after setting "outside only" in previous versions, you will need to set them again explicitly.
  • Note
    Code that called Recalculate immediately after cloning may now be redundant (it can be kept for performance-tuning purposes).
  • Improvement
    Excel compatibility: 0 can now be interpreted as FALSE. In functions such as IF, 0 evaluates as FALSE and any non-zero number as TRUE.
  • New
    Implemented lookup functions.
    • VLOOKUP: supports exact and approximate matching with numeric and string keys. The fourth argument accepts TRUE/FALSE as well as 1/0.
    • HLOOKUP: supports horizontal lookup.
    • MATCH / XMATCH: return the position of a match. Supports direction options (0, 1, -1).
    • XLOOKUP: provides flexible lookup with if_not_found, match modes, and search modes.
  • Improvement
    Operator improvements: the multiplication operator (*) can now convert numeric strings to numbers (e.g., "10"*2 → 20).
  • Improvement
    Error handling improvements: division by zero is now processed as InvalidValue (the Excel-compatible #DIV/0!). FormulaStatus is now InvalidValue instead of Normal in this case.
  • Note
    When using approximate matching, the data must be sorted in ascending or descending order, the same as in Excel.
  • Improvement
    Improved stability.
  • Improvement
    Improved rendering performance.
  • New
    Added support for .NET 8 and .NET Framework 4.8.
