Originally assigned to: @jmcnamara on GitHub.

I just got this working in my iOS app and it works great, the only issue I am running into is setting the cell width.

I am using this code:

let cellWidth = 25.0
let row = 0
let column = 0
worksheet_set_column(worksheet1, row, column, cellWidth, standardText)

and I have changed 25 to other numbers but the cell width is not changing once the document is created.

Cool. Does that mean I can close the Swift Package Manager request?

the only issue I am running into is setting the cell width.

I don't know what is happening. Unfortunately I don't use Swift (or Xcode very much) but the equivalent C program works fine:

#include "xlsxwriter.h"

int main() {

    /* Create a workbook and add a worksheet. */
    lxw_workbook  *workbook  = workbook_new("test.xlsx");
    lxw_worksheet *worksheet = workbook_add_worksheet(workbook, NULL);

    /* Adjust the column width. */
    worksheet_set_column(worksheet, 0, 0, 25, NULL);

    return workbook_close(workbook);
}

Output:

Note, the syntax of worksheet_set_column() is (column, column) not (row, column), although in your case they are both 0 so that isn't the issue.
