- In short
- Turns the range you select into a clean, readable table in one step, with a header row, alternating row banding and tidy borders. In-place restyle of the selection. Your source data stays unchanged; Undo Last brings it back if needed. The whole operation happens locally; nothing is sent anywhere.
What it is for
Turns a messy range pasted from the clipboard or a CSV into a presentation-ready table: it emphasises the header row, bands the rows, tidies alignment and borders, and applies a readable number format to real numbers. The formatting is applied over the area you selected, cell values are left untouched, and the whole thing can be undone in one click.
