B4J Library [B4X] [XUI] SD FlexGrid (Table)

I created a new library to show a table (or grid) similar to the one in EXCEL.

There are already excellent classes that allow many to accomplish things, such as xCustomListView by @Erel (B4X) and with the FlexibleTable by @klaus (B4A). I wanted to make something slightly different suited to my needs.

WARNING
The use of libraries for personal and / or commercial use is permitted. It is not allowed to modify the sources or change the name of the library. Reverse engineering is not authorized to access the sources for any reason, not even for study or learning reasons.

Explanations:

1. To get the calculation of the cells that contain a formula I have added Erel's B4XEval to my Library, but as soon as possible I will make it external so that everyone can modify it according to their needs.
2. To select multiple cells, position yourself on the first cell of those to be selected (the one at the top left) click a shot and then click again and drag your finger to cover all the cells (or area) that you want to select
3. It is still in beta version, presents problems in large grids.
4. Now only for B4A and B4i Now for B4A,B4i,B4j
5. In the example to select a group of cells just long click on a cell (not checkbox). In the case of B4J click with the right mouse button

By icons do you mean text in the Awesone font? or .ico files?

Hello,
How to disable scrolls in control or make Scrolls.width(height)=0?
Thank you.

what do you want to achieve, fixed cells both horizontally and vertically? the cells must not exceed the size of the base

I can't understand what you want to get, attach a small example

Hello
I'm using FlexGrid version 045.
When I use SelectRow(), the selection works fine at the beginning of the table
However, when I scroll the table, SelectRow() is positioned higher than the selection
I've seen this on all the programs I've created with SelectRow()
This even with your example
Is there a solution
Friendliness
