For Formula Editing, mouse input to modify argument to refer another Table Cell same row?

Brass Contributor

For Desktop App, I need help to change an argument from text to reference cell in same row.

It is not referencing cell (working same way as a non-Table Cell).

Please correct me if wrong, Feature of mouse selection of a cell is now lost for formula editing when it comes to Table reference. Instead of a simple single click (as for a non-Table cell), I now have to keyboard the structured reference to a Table Cell; IMHO this requires extra effort of knowing names (Table and Column). If there is a quicker step, I would appreciate the help.

I meant is there quick step with mouse input (not keyboard)?

You can point with the mouse to a cell in a table while creating a formula.

Or to a data column:

Thanks for prompt response, would you mind sharing how to point from a Table Cell? Your screenshot shows pointing from a non-Table Cell.
Cheers!
