Getting Started with Numbers

Step 2:

Get Familiar with the Numbers Window

This is what the template looks like when you first open it:

In this step, you’re introduced to the basic Numbers elements—tables, charts,

and sheets.

Use sheets to divide your
spreadsheet into parts. The
Sheets pane shows the tables
and charts in each sheet.

When there are multiple table
cells selected, this area shows the
results of instant calculations on
the values in the cells.

Use the toolbar to
add and edit objects.

The Format Bar
provides tools for
common tasks.

The Inspector button
opens the Inspector,
which provides in-depth
formatting tools.

Use the Formula Bar
to add and edit
formulas in table cells.

In the Styles Pane,
choose a predefined
style to quickly
change a table’s
appearance.
