I am working on tables everyday at my job. My recommendation/suggestion is
something like task bar right side of the word/sheet page, or a task bar
floating, hiding and showing up when needed or by pressing a shortcut key. This
will benefit me to not move my mouse upper side of the page every time I need
to use a menu.
For example I am organazing data in a table. I am doing 3 job for every single
cell of the table. Clearing senders formatting , clearing unnecessary free
spaces, making text lowercase, but first letters are Uppercase. I will use a
floating and hiding manu for this. Before start of organizing I will click
"create floating menu" button then a floating blank menu shows up. I will
choose mentined 3 job and these 3 job will be added to the floating menu. İt is
not blank any more as long as my job goes on. Then floating menu hided. I am
choosing first cell for doing mentioned 3 jobs and then it floating menu appear
automatically or by pressing a shortcut. But no on the page but right or left
side or a different place I can adjust during creation of float menu.
And there also can be a taskbar at right or left hend side. I believe these
will be very usefull and somebodies can add additional recomandations.
( I know there are macros but it would not be so efficient if worker is not so
good at it )
