OneNote.TableCell class

Represents a cell in a OneNote table.

Extends

Remarks

[ API set: OneNoteApi 1.1 ]

Properties

cellIndex

Gets the index of the cell in its row. Read-only.

context

The request context associated with the object. This connects the add-in's process to the Office host application's process.

id

Gets the ID of the cell. Read-only.

paragraphs

Gets the collection of Paragraph objects in the TableCell. Read-only.

parentRow

Gets the parent row of the cell. Read-only.

rowIndex

Gets the index of the cell's row in the table. Read-only.

shadingColor

Gets and sets the shading color of the cell

Methods

appendHtml(html)

Adds the specified HTML to the bottom of the TableCell.

appendImage(base64EncodedImage, width, height)

Adds the specified image to table cell.

appendRichText(paragraphText)

Adds the specified text to table cell.

appendTable(rowCount, columnCount, values)

Adds a table with the specified number of rows and columns to table cell.

clear()

Clears the contents of the cell.

load(options)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNames)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

load(propertyNamesAndPaths)

Queues up a command to load the specified properties of the object. You must call context.sync() before reading the properties.

set(properties, options)

Sets multiple properties of an object at the same time. You can pass either a plain object with the appropriate properties, or another API object of the same type.

set(properties)

Sets multiple properties on the object at the same time, based on an existing loaded object.

toJSON()

Overrides the JavaScript toJSON() method in order to provide more useful output when an API object is passed to JSON.stringify(). (JSON.stringify, in turn, calls the toJSON method of the object that is passed to it.) Whereas the original OneNote.TableCell object is an API object, the toJSON method returns a plain JavaScript object (typed as OneNote.Interfaces.TableCellData) that contains shallow copies of any loaded child properties from the original object.

track()

Track the object for automatic adjustment based on surrounding changes in the document. This call is a shorthand for context.trackedObjects.add(thisObject). If you are using this object across .sync calls and outside the sequential execution of a ".run" batch, and get an "InvalidObjectPath" error when setting a property or invoking a method on the object, you needed to have added the object to the tracked object collection when the object was first created.

untrack()

Release the memory associated with this object, if it has previously been tracked. This call is shorthand for context.trackedObjects.remove(thisObject). Having many tracked objects slows down the host application, so please remember to free any objects you add, once you're done using them. You will need to call context.sync() before the memory release takes effect.
