How to Use Alt + N + P 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 N, then P. ShortieCuts runs Insert Picture, just like Excel.
Without an extension: Google Sheets doesn't support Excel's Alt key-tips, so Alt + N + P won't run Insert Picture on its own.
