How to enter a line break when typing text into a cell? The User Guide says, "Tap Insert, then tap Tab or Line Break." Where is Insert?

Good afternoon csaw,


Sorry about that. The process is the same for Numbers on iPad. Take a look at the resource below:


Change the look of table text in Numbers on iPad


"You can insert a line break to type multiple paragraphs of text in a table cell. You can also insert a tab.

  1. Tap the cell, then tap the Show Keyboard button.
  2. Tap where you want the line break or tab to place the insertion point.
  3. If the insertion point isn’t where you want it, drag it to reposition it.
  4. Tap Insert, then tap Tab or Line Break.

For information about inserting a line break or tab in a text box or shape, see Set tab stops in Numbers on iPad."
