numbers application

you will have to provide more information about your question. When you type the arrow key(s):

- what do you expect to happen?

- what does (or does not) happen?

I am guessing you are typing the arrow keys and all that happens is that you get beeps. This is because you have not selecting anything. Single click a cell to activate a table, or select a text box or a shape, then use the arrow keys. Numbers has finite size names cell ranges (called Tables). Table are not always active, so you must single click a table to make it active.

Yeah. OK. I understand. Numbers does not work that way. Of course you can provide feedback to Apple using the menu item "Numbers > Provide Numbers Feedback"

This forum is a user-to-user forum. There are no Apple developers here

Actually, if I understand you correctly, Numbers does work that way. When you're entering the formula and want to use the arrow keys to navigate to different cells, just type the = sign to open the formula editor as usual, and then you can hold down the <option> key and use the arrow keys. Very similar to Excel, except you just need to hold the <option> key down while using the arrow keys.
