Use a keyboard shortcut to apply a style in Numbers on Mac

You can assign a shortcut key (F1—F8 on your keyboard) to a paragraph, character or list style, then use the shortcut key to apply the style to selected text.

Note: To use shortcut keys on a Mac, press Fn with the shortcut key.

Assign a shortcut to a style

Go to the Numbers app on your Mac.
Open a spreadsheet, click any text in the spreadsheet, then in the Format sidebar, click the Text tab.
Click the Style button near the top of the sidebar.
Do one of the following:
- For a paragraph style: Click the paragraph style name at the top of the sidebar, move the pointer over the name of the style you want to assign a shortcut to, then click the arrow that appears.
- For a character style: Click the Character Styles pop-up menu, move the pointer over the name of the style you want to assign a shortcut to, then click the arrow that appears.
- For a list style: Click the Bullets and Lists pop-up menu, move the pointer over the name of the style you want to assign a shortcut to, then click the arrow that appears.
Select Shortcut, then select a key.
Now, the shortcut key appears next to the style name in the menu for easy reference.
