1.0.0 - 2026-04-13

1. Merge Every "N" Cells

Merge your selection into fixed-size groups along rows or columns.

• Group size: Define exactly how many cells form each merged block.
• Last partial group: Choose whether to merge or leave the last partial group cells at the end.

2. Merge By Value

Smart merging based on cell content — ideal for grouping repeated cells.

• Merge repeated values: Automatically detect and merge consecutive cells with the same value (vertically or horizontally).
• Merge value with empty cells: Extend a value across adjacent blank cells until the next non-empty cell.

Advanced grouping:

• Each column on its own — Every column decides its merge pattern independently.
• All columns follow the first — The first column sets the merge pattern, and all other columns mirror it exactly.

3. Unmerge

Quickly split merged cells in your selection.

• Optional: Automatically fill every split cell with the original merged value so no data is lost.

4. Concatenate & Merge

Combine multiple cell values into one cell with your chosen separator, then merge them.

• Separators: Comma, semicolon, pipe (|), dash, newline, or any custom character.
• Trim whitespace — Clean extra spaces from each value before joining.
• Skip empty cells — Prevent blank cells from creating unwanted gaps.

Common Merge Options

• Direction: Work vertically (down columns) or horizontally (across rows).
• Alignment: Set both horizontal alignment (left, center, right) and vertical alignment (top, middle, bottom) for the merged cells.
