Easy Way to Instantly Insert Images into Excel Cells - No More Wasting Time!
In this video, you'll learn how to insert an image in an Excel cell.
Inserting an image in a cell in Excel is the easy part. You can easily use the option to insert Pictures in the Insert tab in the ribbon.
But if you leave it at that, then that's not the right way to insert an image in a cell in Excel. When you resize the cell or move it or filter or hide it, the image will not follow along. The image will not stick to the cell but instead act as an object above the worksheet.
In most cases, what you would want is the image to stick to the cell and get hidden or filtered or resized when you change the cell.
To make sure this happens, you need to take some extra steps, which I show in this Excel tutorial video.
In this video, I will show you how to insert an image into an Excel cell in a way that it sticks to that cell. So, in case you size or filter/hide the cell, the image will follow along
Here are the steps to insert a picture/image into a cell in Excel:
-- Go to the Insert tab.
-- Click on the Pictures option (it’s in the illustrations group).
-- In the ‘Insert Picture’ dialog box, locate the pictures that you want to insert into a cell in Excel.
-- Click on the Insert button.
-- Re-size the picture/image so that it can fit perfectly within the cell.
-- Place the picture in the cell.
A cool way to do this is to first press the ALT key and then move the picture with the mouse. It will snap and arrange itself with the border of the cell as soon as it comes close to it.
If you have multiple images, you can select and insert all the images at once.
