• Data can be formatted in a few clicks with the quick analysis. When a data set is selected, a quick selection menu appears in the lower right corner, allowing familiar functions such as conditional formatting to be set directly. By mouse-over, the individual formatting can be displayed in the preview and applied with one click.
