Dialog Box Launcher Excel

Question

How to use the Dialog Box Launcher in Excel?

Answer

When you see the arrow (called the Dialog Box Launcher) in the lower-right corner of a group, there are more options available for the group. Click the arrow, and you'll see a dialog box or a task pane.
For example, on the Home tab, in the Font group, you have all the commands that are used the most to make font changes: commands to change the font, to change the size, and to make the font bold, italic, or underlined. Click on the Dialog box launcher to see more options for font changes, such as effects which include Strikethrough, Superscript, and Subscript.
