    Just wow! That this is still a thing! Even the "Help" says to do it in the desktop app and then upload but text rotation is REMOVED when opened online

    I need this feature - hope there is a plan to include it soon. I keep checking back and there have been no updates.

    Please improve and add the text orientation options, thanks a lot!

    I think this is the third time I have asked for this. As some have mentioned - even Google Sheets have this function!! Maybe I should go back using Google, because this function is vital for anybody who works with spreadsheets.

    Viewing Excel files through Teams doesn't support text orientation options, which means that long names at the tops of columns that were oriented vertically or at an angle can't be viewed. i invested a lot of time building these spreadsheets, and now will have to find a new approach to file sharing or rebuild

    The files I'm sharing are for our Risk Management and Safety program. I should never have invested the time learning to use Teams, when I should have instead figured out a different file sharing method.

    This almost seems like false advertising; the impression one gets is that Teams will let you share any MS file, but many spreadsheets should apparently be handled outside of Teams.

    Thank you for your attention to this significant issue.

    Having to re-format is time wasting.

    This must be a joke or something. Hey Office online is the big thing, please join...
    More than 4 years are people commenting about such an essential feature.
