Google Spreadsheets
- Insert copied cells — Seems like such a small thing, but I need to do it all the stinkin’ time.
- Fill down with a double-click — This is an Excel trick that I use heavily. Not so in Spreadsheets.
- Sort by multiple columns — Can’t do it. sorting in general is very slow, IMO.
- Autofilter — Can’t do it. There’s a gadget that attempts this functionality, but it’s buggy.
Google Docs
- Bullets, ordered lists & outlining — indenting and unindenting gets you in a mess real quick. It’s frustrating to have to either a) edit the HTML or b) clear formatting and redo all of the indenting.
- Outline view/pane — I use this a lot in Word — it builds a hyperlink view of your document based on heading styles. I wish Google Docs had something similar. The new Table of Contents component is nice, but I need something that helps me jump around inside long documents.
