Microsoft 365 Insider Beta Channel v2302 build 16130.20020 - Feb. 3UPDATE 2/03:
Version 2302 (Build 16124.20000)
Feature updates
Excel
- Assign a sublabel as the default when a parent label is selected: When using built-in sensitivity labels in M365 Apps, admins can specify a sublabel to get applied automatically when a parent label is selected. This takes effect only when users select a parent label manually.
- Reducing slowness and freezes when multiple workbooks are open: This feature reduces slowness and freezes experienced when working in a workbook due to calculations occurring in other unrelated workbooks also open at the same time and in the same Excel.exe instance. It achieves this by optimizing global automatic recalculation to the workbook being worked in, and its interdependent workbooks also open at the same time.
- Formula evaluation tooltips: Select a part of your formula and you'll see a tooltip showing the current value of just the part you've selected.
- Sensitivity Label scoping between files, emails and meetings: Office applications can now filter out sensitivity labels based on the document type. For example, Outlook email will no longer show labels that only apply to Word/Excel/PowerPoint documents.
