UNDERSTANDING QUICK ANALYSIS


The Quick Analysis tools were developed in Live Preview with some of these tools to create
response to the fact that users weren’t using or the Quick Analysis tools.
even aware of the more powerful analytical tools
found in Excel. So Excel decided to combine

The Quick Analysis Button


The Quick Analysis button
appears when a range is
selected in a worksheet.
Clicking on the button displays
the Quick Analysis gallery
which contains quick analysis
tools that can be applied to the
selected data.
The tools have been organised
along tabs at the top –
FORMATTING, CHARTS,
TOTALS, TABLES, and
SPARKLINES.
When you click on a tab,
options specific to that tab are
presented.

Using Quick Analysis Tools With Live


Preview
Most of the Quick Analysis tools in the
Quick Analysis gallery provide a Live
Preview of the changes in the worksheet
when you point to an option.
This is very useful if you are not sure of the
formatting or type of analysis you require as it
provides you with a preview of what the data
would look like if you selected that specific
option.
At the right we have selected only the totals
from the worksheet shown above. We have
pointed to options from the TOTALS tab (%
Total and Average) and from the
FORMATTING tab (Data Bars).
Live Preview has either presented another
row of analysed data or has formatted the
selection accordingly.
All of these tools are also available on the
ribbon but using the Quick Analysis tools is
much quicker.
