+ for which SetCellSize() had been called, the returned values are the

+
+ More unexpectedly, perhaps, the returned values may be @em negative for
+ the cells which are inside a span covered by a cell occupying multiple
+ rows or columns. They correspond to the offset of the main cell of the
+ span from the cell passed to this functions and the function returns
+ CellSpan_Inside value to indicate this.
+
+ As an example, consider a 3*3 grid with the cell (1, 1) (the one in the
+ middle) having a span of 2 rows and 2 columns, i.e. the grid looks like
+ @code
+ +----+----+----+
+ | | | |

+ +----+ |

+ the cell (1, 1) itself and -1 and -1 for the cell (2, 2) as well as -1
+ and 0 for the cell (2, 1).
