Many new intelligent features have been released by Microsoft for Excel. The functionalities are now available for Web users in addition to Windows and Mac users. Suggested Links, Image Function, Formula Suggestions, Formula by Example, and other new capabilities are available to web users. If an external link to a Cloud workbook is broken, the Suggested Links function will identify it and provide users a new site to fix it. Users of the Image Function tool will be able to resize cells, sort, and filter data in an Excel table as well as deal with photos.
In addition to suggested links, the image function, and a new search bar in the Query pane, Microsoft is rolling out Formula Suggestions, Formula by Example, and Suggested links to Excel online users, according to a blog post on the company's website. Windows users now have access to the Image function and a new keyboard shortcut that opens the Power Query editor, whereas Mac Excel users only have access to the Image function tool.
According to Microsoft, when an external link to a Cloud workbook breaks, the Suggested Links function will alert users and recommend a new URL where the broken link may be fixed. It is presently possible to produce the movie.
Based on the user's data, the Formula Suggestions tool will automatically recommend the optimum formula. Users must enter the symbol "=" in a cell or the formula bar to use this functionality. Excel currently only supports the English language and can propose the SUM, AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, MIN, and COUNTA formulae.
Formula by example, on the other hand, suggests filling the entire column with a formula in order to detect the pattern and make human data entering simpler.
Users of Excel for the Web may search and discover their queries in the Queries search pane with the use of the Search bar function.
According to reports, Microsoft is developing a tabs feature for the Windows 11 Notepad software. The feature is presently undergoing preliminary internal testing and is planned for release in the start of 2023. An photograph showing the functionality was unintentionally sent to Twitter by a Microsoft employee, but it was then removed.
