Horizontal text alignment in openpyxl

Question

I\'m tryign to change the text alignment to the center of 2 merged sells, I\'ve found some answers that didn\'t work for my case

currentCell = ws.cell(\'A1\')
cu         


        

Answer 1

You can achieve this by using Python XlsxWriter library.

import xlsxwriter

workbook = xlsxwriter.Workbook('example.xlsx')
worksheet = workbook.add_worksheet()

cell_format = workbook.add_format({'align': 'center'})

worksheet.merge_range('A1:B1', "")
worksheet.write_rich_string('A1','Example', cell_format)

workbook.close()

Here i have merged cells A1, B1 and added a cell format parameter which includes the align parameter assigned as center.
