Microsoft has added a small yet highly useful feature to Excel – the Focus Cell. Instead of just showing a thick green border around the selected cell, which can be hard to distinguish especially with a large amount of data, the Focus Cell feature highlights the selected cell with a green background both vertically (column) and horizontally (row). This makes it crystal clear exactly where the cell is located.
The Focus Cell feature can be toggled on and off in the View tab, allowing users to customize the highlighting color. This feature is already available in Excel Beta version 2410 and will be rolled out in future stable versions. The good news is that both the web and Mac versions of Excel will also benefit from this feature.
TLDR: Microsoft introduced the Focus Cell feature in Excel, making it easier to locate selected cells with customizable highlighting options.
