Things Excel does that should be added to Numbers

This is a list of nifty house keeping things which got left out of numbers.


Selecting Multiple Sheets:

The ability to Select multiple sheets at once and preform an action on them. This would be so Helpful if you wanted to move say group of Sheets together.


Drag and Drop Sheet(s) between Numbers documents:

This one really surprised me, you drag and drop sheets between Numbers Documents? Drag and Drop is basically a foundation of the Mac OS ecosystem; why can't you drag and drop sheets from one document to another?


Copy/Move Sheet(s) in a Drop contextual menu:

The ability to copy/move sheets, by right click, move/copy and then pick an open document and even pick where it will be inserted.


Thanks for listening

Copy/Move Sheets - Copy Sheet and Paste Sheet are already available in the dropdown up by the sheet name (tab).


Drag/Drop Sheets between documents - You can use the method above. Copy Sheet, the in a dropdown up by a sheet name in the destination document choose Paste Sheet.


Selecting Multiple Sheets - Yes, not a current feature. However, given the unique design of Numbers, where it is easy to have multiple tables on one sheet, I rarely have enough sheets to feel a need for this.


For feedback to Apple you can go to Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback in your menu.
