Excel for the web now lets you pick the exact colors you want for cells
Microsoft released an update for Excel for the web earlier this week. The company outlines the update in a Tech Community post. The update brings several new features, including new options for cell colors, cell formatting, and tables. The general theme behind the update is helping people create uniform spreadsheets. Microsoft also announced a new printing experience for Excel online, though it isn’t available yet.
Excel online now supports custom colors within cells. You can click on the “more colors” option and then pick a specific color using sliders. You can also enter Hex values or RGB values to make sure the spreadsheet uses the exact color that you’d like.
Separating cells is easier as well, with the new options to draw borders, draw border grids, and erase borders.
Moving over to tables, you can now select table designs and styling options, rename tables, and add a total row. You can also format any data as a table.
