What Alt + H + 0 Does in Excel
Shows one more decimal place in the selected cells. It changes the display only, not the stored value.
How to Use Alt + H + 0 in Google Sheets
- Add the ShortieCuts extension to Chrome and open any Google Sheet.
- Select the cells you want to work on (if the command needs a selection).
- Press Alt (or Option on Mac). Excel-style key-tips appear over the sheet.
- Press H, then 0. ShortieCuts runs Increase Decimal, just like Excel.
Without an extension: Google Sheets doesn't support Excel's Alt key-tips, so Alt + H + 0 won't run Increase Decimal on its own.
