How do I wrap text within a cell in my spreadsheet?



To wrap text within a cell, or merged set of cells:

  1. Select a cell or group of cells.
  2. Right-click the selected area and go to Format cells…, or select Format → Cells from the main menu
  3. Click on the Alignment tab.
  4. Check the Wrap text automatically (in OpenOffice.org 1.1.x: Automatic line break)
  5. Click  OK .
  6. Select Optimal Row Height… from the context menu. Now the contents of the cell will be wrapped to fit the cell.
