Description:
Google docs has "overflow", "wrap", "clip". You guys have some tedious way to do the clip https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/calc-how-to-truncate-data-in-a-cell/66509/4 which is astonishing to me since this is one of the most used shortcuts for me in google docs, and I don't see how it wouldn't be the same for a huge percentage of people using spreadsheets. 

I went into the "customize -> toolbar" area and I see you have checkboxes for various options. A checkbox to allow us to add "clip" (or even enable it by default and let people remove it) would be very useful. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Try to clip
2.Overflow is unreadable
3.How is overflow default

Actual Results:
Overflow is unusable

Expected Results:
How is overflow default


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Google spreadsheet's menu is well done also. One button you click to open 3.
