In this new version you will find a host of highly requested new features, as well as performance and usability improvements. The new UI also gives us engineers a better platform to build on in the coming months, so stay tuned for more exciting developments.
You can now edit cells using the formula bar, which is ideal for working with complicated formulas.
Cell auto fill makes duplicating an entry as easy as pressing Enter. Just type the first few characters and the rest will show up as you type.
You can now move columns by dragging them with your mouse. You can also sort a column with the drop-down menu on the column header.
Our changes even made it down to the bottom of the spreadsheet, where we’ve re-designed the links to sheets so they're clearer and easier to use. Sheet titles are bigger and easier to click. And for those of you with a lot of sheets in one doc, we added a quick way to view a list of all your sheets.
At Google, we believe every millisecond counts and we’re happy the new technological foundation allows for faster loading and a smoother scrolling experience. Initial loading, cell freezing, scrolling, and edits from collaborators are all improved. And getting where you want in a spreadsheet is faster too: you can provide direct links to any sheet in a spreadsheet.
To give the new spreadsheets a try, click the New version link in the top right corner of every spreadsheet. And let us know what you think on the forums.
