What Alt + H + S + Y Does in Excel
Reapplies the current filter and sort after the data has changed.
How to Use Alt + H + S + Y 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, S, then Y. ShortieCuts runs Reapply Filter, just like Excel.
Without an extension: Google Sheets doesn't support Excel's Alt key-tips, so Alt + H + S + Y won't run Reapply Filter on its own.
