Question

I used PHPExcel to generate chart and i done it, also i have protected (read only) the file. But now i want to avoid from dragging of chart and also the cut option should be disabled or user should not be able to cut the chart. For any help thanks.

Was it helpful?

Solution

This code protects all objects in workbook - including charts:

$workbook->getActiveSheet()->getProtection()->setObjects(true);

Tested on PHPExcel 1.8.0.
