Freeze panes

Freeze panes is a feature in spreadsheet applications, such as Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice Calc, Apple's Numbers, and Google Sheets. It's utilized to "lock" a row or column in place so that it is always displayed as you navigate around a workbook.

For example, freezing panes is useful if your spreadsheet has a header row that you want to always be visible. With this feature, when a user scrolls vertically in an open spreadsheet, the "frozen" header row stays in place as the contents of other cells scroll. Freeze panes helps users to always know what kind of data they are viewing.
