The Move and size with cells option will cause the image to automatically adjust its’ size as you adjust the size of the cell, but it will not resize if you select the Move but don’t size with cells option. You are going to have the option of setting the image so that it will either Move and size with cells or Move but don’t size with cells.
Once the image is locked to the cell it will resize appropriately if you adjust the size of the row or column, and it will move with the row or column if you cut and paste it to a new location. For example, if you resize a row or a column, or if you cut and paste a row column, the image will not move or travel as the cells that contain text or numbers will.įortunately this is behavior that you can adjust, and it can be done by locking the image to a cell. Images in Excel essentially exist on a layer above the spreadsheet, and are not subjected to the same rules that apply to a cell that only contains data.
It’s very common for Microsoft Excel spreadsheets to contain images, but they don’t behave the same way as data when they are first inserted into a cell.
