Bold a cell

Ctrl+B (or the toolbar Bold button) toggles bold on the selection.

What it does

Select cells and press Ctrl+B — or click the Bold (B) button in the toolbar — to toggle bold. Bold is presentation, separate from the cell's value: bolding =A1+B1 styles the number without touching the formula. It undoes and redoes like any other edit.

Verified behavior

Matches Google Sheets: In Google Sheets, Ctrl+B toggles bold on the selected cells. Bold is a presentation attribute independent of the cell's value or formula, and it undoes/redoes like any edit. Toggling again removes it.
