Cómo insertar una imagen dentro de una celda en Excel con Microsoft Office 2024

In Microsoft Office 2024, Excel continues to offer advanced features to improve how you present and manage data. One such feature is the ability to insert a picture directly inside a cell, making it easier to combine visual elements with your data. This can be particularly useful when you want to attach images related to your entries, such as product photos, logos, or reference images. If you’re using Microsoft Office 2024 Professional Plus, this feature is readily available to enhance your productivity.

If you’re wondering how to insert a picture inside a cell in Excel with Microsoft Office 2024, here’s a step-by-step guide that will help you achieve this with ease.

Step 1: Prepare Your Image

Before inserting a picture, make sure the image you want to use is saved on your computer. The image should be appropriately sized so it can fit within the cell’s dimensions. Excel does not resize images automatically to fit a cell, so you might need to adjust the image before inserting it.

Step 2: Select the Cell

Open your Microsoft Office 2024 Excel workbook, and select the cell where you want the picture to appear. Click on the specific cell in which you want the image to be inserted.

Step 3: Insert the Picture

1. Go to the “Insert” Tab: In the ribbon at the top of the screen, click on the “Insert” tab.
2. Click on “Pictures”: In the “Illustrations” group, click on the “Pictures” option. You’ll be given the option to insert a picture either from your device (“This Device”) or from online sources (“Online Pictures”).
3. Choose Your Image: Browse to where your image is saved, select it, and click “Insert”.

At this point, the image will appear on top of your selected cell, but it will not yet be inside the cell.

Step 4: Resize the Picture to Fit the Cell

After inserting the image, you’ll notice it may not perfectly fit the cell. To adjust the picture to fit inside the cell:

1. Select the Image: Click on the image to select it.
2. Resize the Image: Use the sizing handles (small squares on the edges of the image) to resize the image. You can drag the handles until the image fits perfectly within the cell.
3. Align the Image with the Cell: To ensure the image stays within the cell, you might need to adjust the row height and column width to fit the picture. Right-click the column or row header, and choose “Row Height” o “Column Width” to adjust as needed.

Step 5: Set the Image to Move and Resize with the Cell

To ensure that your picture stays within the cell and adjusts as you move or resize the cell, follow these steps:

1. Right-click on the Image: Once the image is inserted and selected, right-click on it.
2. Choose “Format Picture”: In the context menu, click on “Format Picture”.
3. Select “Size & Properties”: In the “Format Picture” pane on the right, go to the “Size & Properties” tab (it looks like a square with a ruler).
4. Choose “Move and size with cells”: Under the “Properties” section, select “Move and size with cells”. This ensures that if you resize or move the cell, the picture will adjust accordingly.

Step 6: Final Adjustments

After completing these steps, you may want to make some final adjustments:

• Align the Picture: Use the alignment tools in the “Format” tab to align the picture within the cell.
• Remove Border: If you prefer, you can remove the border of the image by selecting the image, going to the “Format” tab, and choosing “Shape Outline” > “No Outline”.
