In short

Effect on your data and undo

Basic Value does not change your source data; the result is added as a separate item. It refreshes automatically when the linked cells change. Undo Last reverses it whenever you need.

How it differs from similar tools

The card is bound to your cells: change the value and the card refreshes, and it stays freely editable as a shape. No formulas or macros to maintain.

Limitations

Frequently asked questions

Can I edit the resulting visual?
Yes. It is made of ordinary Excel objects, so colors, text and size are all freely adjustable.
What happens when I update the cells?
The visual watches the cells it is bound to; change the values and the view redraws itself.
Is my source table modified?
No. The tool only reads your data; the only addition to the sheet is the visual itself.
Can I switch templates later?
You can reopen the gallery and build another template on the same data; the existing visual stays until you delete it.
