    _emma_b_   if you do Command+1 the box comes out, or you can highlight the cell(s) and right click to format cells

    If you go to the main menu bar above where you would find The apple logo, File Edit etc. And click format. That may be able to help you if you were looking to get into the font dialogue box.
  • _emma_b_ Did you ever figure out how to display a dialogue box for more feature options for a ribbon group?? I'm currently taking an online excel course to familiarize myself with it, but the instructions are for a PC and I cannot figure out how to expand the options on a mac. Thanks!!

    Not sure if I understand your question,

    To create or inset table in excel on mac, use this short cut ( āŒƒ + T)

      _emma_b_ On a Mac myself. Needed to google what a dialogue box launcher is. Understand that it's the small arrow in the bottom right hand corner of many ribbon groups. That's Windows only, I believe.

        Riny_van_Eekelen Yah I saw that too when I was researching this problem. I can't find anything like that small arrow you are talking about anywhere on my excel window.
