how to add PdfTextBoxField to a grid cell

[mgalal123]

Hi,
I need to embed a PdfTextBoxField in a PdfGrid cell. I created the filed and set the cell value to it but it didn't show. I use intellij on Windows 10.

PdfTextBoxField txtbox1 = new PdfTextBoxField();
Dimension2D dimension2D = new Dimension();
dimension2D.setSize(30, 20);
txtbox1.setSize(dimension2D);
PdfFont font = new PdfFont(PdfFontFamily.Helvetica, 10f);
txtbox1.setText("test");
txtbox1.setFont(font);

TargetRow.getCells().get(2).setValue(txtbox1);

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry.
Our Spire.PDF does not support adding the text boxe directly in the cell of the table, we add "PdfTextBoxField" according to the position. You can get the text position and text height by finding the text in the cell, and then add a "PdfTextBoxField" based on the text position and height. Please refer to the sample code in the attachment.
