Save time, and easily search for any features or functions in your Docs, Sheets and Slides.
Google Docs, Sheets and Slides are widely popular among Google Workspace users. They are online documents and easy to access, share, and support real time collaboration. Many new functions and features are always updated to improve users’ experiences enhancing more productivity. Recently, Google announced the latest improvement on tool discovery that will make it simpler for users to find any features and commonly used tools.
Before the update, this search feature is under the Help menu (Help > Search the menus). However, after this latest capability, the enhanced tool discovery will be located at the top of the menu on Google Docs, Sheets and Slides. Users can find relevant features or functions quicker than usual, assisting them to save time and work faster.

In addition, users can use their own words to locate relevant features or functions quickly. For example, searching for “who last viewed this document” will make the Activity dashboard appear, allowing users to view who last saw the document.
If users create a new document in Docs, Sheets, or Slides, then click on the search tool, it will provide suggestions for common actions like:
– In Docs: Page setup, Dropdown, Meeting notes
– In Sheets: Insert rows/columns, merge cells, and freeze rows/columns
– In Slides: Page setup, Spell check, Edit theme
Once users begin editing the document, they will be able to find recent actions by clicking on the tool finder for easily accessing previously used features. According to the latest updates, it will be easier for users to find and discover commonly used tools and features. That improves users’ workflow management, reducing time consumption on each task. Which also leads to better productivity.
