Fix for hidden rows/columns being exported
Problem
The Excellentable grants the ability to hide rows/columns as desired. Edits made in the spreadsheet will not impact those hidden cells. There was an issue that was brought up regarding exported hidden rows/columns in Cloud. The hidden rows/columns were unexpectedly present on a PDF export of a Confluence page. The rows/columns were meant to be hidden for a reason.
Symptoms
The hidden rows/columns unexpectedly seen, as shown below:
Step-by-step guide
