Enable cell protection #751

Open JDasHO opened 3 weeks ago

JDasHO commented 3 weeks ago

Hi everyone, is there a way to enable protection of a worksheet? Right now what I'm trying to do is setting a cell to protected like so:

ws.cell("D4").protection(xlnt::protection::locked_and_visible());

However it doesn't take effect. When I open the so created xlsx file in Excel I can still edit the protected cell and under cell/formatting Excel also informs me that cell protection is only effective after I enabled sheet protection.
