Alt N S R on Mac: Statistic Chart in Excel

To run Statistic Chart with Alt N S R in Excel on a Mac, install LightningXL, tap Option, then type N, S, R. The same keys as Windows, with the same result.

Step by step

1. Install LightningXL

   Click a cell, or select the range the command should apply to.

   Tap ⌥ on its own to show the key tips, then N for Insert, S R for Statistic Chart.

What Alt N S R does

Statistic Chart sits on the Insert tab of the Excel ribbon. On Windows, Alt N S R runs it from the keyboard. Excel for Mac has the same ribbon but no Alt key, so without LightningXL you click through Insert › Statistic Chart instead.
