[Issue] Background image or multi-colour on cell

Post by MikeyCarter »

I see you can set a cell background and text colour. Is it possible to pick multiple colours for a cell background, or graduated colours? Or is it possible to use an image as a background?

I don't see any request yet for a gradient cell background, but there are requests for pattern and image backgrounds:
Issue 16642: Allow patterns as cells background
Issue 69092: there is no way to set image as background for cell

One workaround, put an image in background with the anchor of the cell. But the size don't change with the cell changes.
