There is an article in the tutorials which demonstrates how to insert textbox with contents in Excel. Sometime back, a user of Spire.XLS wanted to know if it is possible to remove the borderline of the textbox that has been inserted in Excel chart. Yes, of course. This article focuses on delivering a solution to this issue.
In the following section, we're going to create two textboxes in the same chart, one textbox is built with borderline, the other one without. Then we can learn how to remove borderline using Spire.XLS by comparison.
Code snippet for remove borderline of textbox:
Step 1: Create a new instance of workbook.
Workbook workbook = new Workbook(); workbook.Version=ExcelVersion.Version2010;
Step 2: Create a new worksheet named "Remove Borderline" and add a chart to the worksheet.
Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0]; sheet.Name = "Remove Borderline"; Chart chart = sheet.Charts.Add();
Step 3: Create textbox1 in the chart and input text information.
XlsTextBoxShape textbox1 = chart.TextBoxes.AddTextBox(50, 50, 100, 500) as XlsTextBoxShape;
Step 4: Create textbox2 in the chart, input text information and remove borderline.
XlsTextBoxShape textbox = chart.TextBoxes.AddTextBox(500, 50, 100, 500) as XlsTextBoxShape; textbox.Text = "The solution without borderline"; textbox.Line.Weight = 0;
Step 5: Save and launch the file.
workbook.SaveToFile("Sample.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2010);
Process.Start("Sample.xlsx");
Result:

static void Main(string[] args)
{
// Create a new workbook
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
workbook.Version = ExcelVersion.Version2010;
// Get the first worksheet and rename it
Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
sheet.Name = "Remove Borderline";
// Add a chart to the worksheet
Chart chart = sheet.Charts.Add();
// Add the first text box (with visible border)
XlsTextBoxShape textbox1 = chart.TextBoxes.AddTextBox(50, 50, 100, 500) as XlsTextBoxShape ;
textbox1.Text = "The original with borderline";
// Add the second text box (border will be hidden)
XlsTextBoxShape textbox2 = chart.TextBoxes.AddTextBox(500, 50, 100, 500) as XlsTextBoxShape;
textbox2.Text = "The solution without borderline";
// Hide the border by setting line weight to 0
textbox2.Line.Weight = 0;
// Save the result file
workbook.SaveToFile("Sample.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2010);
Process.Start("Sample.xlsx");
}
