Other Formatting

Center Cycle

Cycle through horizontal centering styles.

Horizontal Cycle

Cycle through horizontal alignment styles.

Vertical Cycle

Cycle through vertical alignment styles.

Left Indent Cycle

Increase the left indent of selected cells. Repeat the shortcut keystroke to increase the indent, up to the maximum indent specified on the Miscellaneous tab of the Application Settings dialog. When the maximum indent level is reached, the indent returns to zero upon the next shortcut keystroke.

Right Indent Cycle

Increase the right indent of selected cells. Repeat the shortcut keystroke to increase the indent, up to the maximum indent specified on the Miscellaneous tab of the Application Settings dialog. When the maximum indent level is reached, the indent returns to zero upon the next shortcut keystroke.

Increase Font

Increase the font size of selected cells by one point. Continue increasing font size with successive shortcut keystrokes. The native increase font size operation in Excel applies a single font size to all cells in the selection, which can result in unexpected font size changes. Macabacus is smarter, incrementing font size for each cell in the selection, regardless of initial font size.

Increase Table Size

Increase cell font, height, and width proportionally. This differs from simply increasing font size in that cell width is adjusted automatically rather than fixed.

Decrease Font

Decrease the font size of selected cells by one point. Continue decreasing font size with successive shortcut keystrokes. The native decrease font size operation in Excel applies a single font size to all cells in the selection, which can result in unexpected font size changes. Macabacus is smarter, decrementing font size for each cell in the selection, regardless of initial font size.

Decrease Table Size

Decrease cell font, height, and width proportionally. This differs from simply decreasing font size in that cell width is adjusted automatically rather than fixed.

Underline Cycle

Cycle through the four native underline styles (single, single accounting, double, and double accounting).

List Cycle

Cycle through ordered and unordered lists styles. Available list styles include discs, dashes, numbers, uppercase/lowercase letters, and uppercase/lowercase Roman numerals.

Sum Bar

Insert sum bars into selected cells. Repeat the shortcut keystroke to remove sum bars. Sum bars use the default border color (typically black), which can be customized. Sum bars help avoid inadvertently adding rows above a cell with a SUM formula without including the added rows in the sum.

Case Cycle

Cycle text in selected cells through sentence, title, upper, and lower case.

Leader Dots

Add leader dots to text in selected cells. Repeat the shortcut keystroke to remove the leader dots. Leader dots are sometimes used as a visual aid to help the reader align text labels at the left of a financial statement with the first number to the right.

Wrap Text

Toggle on/off text wrap in selected cells.
