The Toolbar

The Numbers toolbar gives you one-click access to many of the actions you perform as
you work in Numbers. As you discover which actions you perform most often, you can
add, remove, and rearrange toolbar buttons to suit your working style.

To see a description of what a button does, hold your pointer over it.

The default set of toolbar buttons is shown below.
