    Question How to prevent wrap text?

    Hello,

    After pasting some text in a cell, I see the [Wrap Text] button will be automatic pressed down by Excel 2021. (screenshot 1)

    I do not want the [Wrap Text] button to be pressed down permanently. I want it to look like screenshot 2 permanently

    I want the Wrap Text button to be unpressed permanently regardless of anything I do to all cells in Excel 2021, how to do it? (if i want to read the contents of the cell i would click on the cell to read the contents displayed on the top (just below ribbon))

    screenshot 1 [Wrap Text] button pressed automatically by excel after I input some text in a cell or if I click the cell then add or edit text.
    wrap text button is press down (i do not want).PNG

    screenshot 2 [Wrap Text] I need to click Wrap Text button to manually unpress the Wrap Text. I want my sheet to look like this permanently.
    wrap text button is not press down (i want it).PNG

    Using Excel 2021

    Administrative Note:

    Is your forum profile showing the Excel PRODUCT that you need this to work for?

    Members will tailor the solutions they offer to the Office PRODUCT (Excel, NOT Windows) that you have. Please check that your forum profile is up-to-date in this respect. If you aren't sure, in Excel go to File | Account and report what it says below the MS logo at the top of that page. If your product is for Mac, please also state this.

    The three most recent Excel products are Excel 2019, Excel 2021 and MS365 - if you are using MS365, please give this name along with the version number in your profile (e.g. MS365 Version 2306). This is in the About Excel section further down the Account page.

    Thanks.
