SAN FRANCISCO — Google has introduced a new pre-fill feature for the spreadsheet application 'Google Sheets'.
"If you select a range of cells then insert a dropdown chip, manually entered cell data will convert to pre-fill the dropdown values," the tech giant said in a Workspace Updates blogpost.
Users can then use the dropdown sidebar to easily adjust the options or add styles to the dropdowns before accepting.
[bsa_pro_ad_space id=1]The company also announced that users can now convert links to place chips in bulk from the insert menu or cell menu.
This time-saving update will be helpful when formatting data in bulk for event schedules, vendor lists, trip itineraries, etc.
Moreover, the company announced that when right-clicking a file or folder in Google Drive, users will now see a new menu format.
Last month, the tech giant added the 'Alt text' option in the 'Image options' sidebar of Sheets.
Also, the company had announced an option to insert a link and press the tab key to convert the link into a smart chip in Google Sheets.
Users can access this feature when they copy and paste email addresses or links to Drive files, Maps places or Youtube videos into a Sheet.
Meanwhile, earlier this week, Google had announced that eSignature is now available as an open beta on Drive. The company will also introduce support for the new eSignature capabilities-- Audit trail, Multi-signer, Non-Gmail users and Initiating eSignature on PDF-- later this year.
