If you type some data in a cell on a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, on the Mac, you will notice that the cell below will get activated. But seems your intent was to add a new line in the same cell, you wanted to get on to the next line, right?
Well in such a case you will need to press Option ⌥ + Return (Enter) key on your Mac/Macbook keyboard.
You can check out the below gif demo to see this in action.
If at any time you want to add more content on a cell to the next line, place your cursor at the end of the text and hit the Option + Return (Enter) key.
