Creating a split pane on a worksheet

Description

Creates a split pane on a specified worksheet.

Usage

## S4 method for signature 'workbook,character'
createSplitPane(object,sheet,xSplitPos,ySplitPos,leftColumn,topRow)
## S4 method for signature 'workbook,numeric'
createSplitPane(object,sheet,xSplitPos,ySplitPos,leftColumn,topRow)

Arguments

object	The workbook to use
sheet	The name or index of the sheet on which to create a split pane
xSplitPos	Horizontal position of split (in 1/20th of a point)
ySplitPos	Vertical position of split (in 1/20th of a point)
leftColumn	Left column (as index or column name) visible in right pane
topRow	Top row visible in bottom pane

Note

To keep an area of a worksheet visible while you scroll to another area of the worksheet, you can lock specific rows or columns in one area by freezing or splitting panes.

When you freeze panes, you keep specific rows or columns visible when you scroll in the worksheet. For example, you might want to keep row and column labels visible as you scroll.

When you split panes, you create separate worksheet areas that you can scroll within, while rows or columns in the non-scrolled area remain visible.
