Gaurav:
Hello, everyone, and welcome to the second lesson in this numbers tutorial series. I realized last lesson I did not get into much detail about the row and column headers, and we also did not discuss the formatter pane on the right side. So that's what we're going to discuss today. I have my same spreadsheet open, which we were working on earlier. And I'm going to press VO plus U for umbrella to open the window spots menu. I'm going to press down arrow.
