New Dashboard Interface - grid view and/or edit records in-line?

You can create a "Blank" page and create your own dashboard

Here's how you can do it:

Interfaces -> Click '+' ->  Click '+ Add page' -> Scroll to the end and select 'Blank'

In this page you can add your grid with inline editing and any other elements to your dashboard.

I hope this helps, if you need more assistance feel free to schedule a 15min call with me.

this is a legacy 'dashboard' that does not have any of the new features. Thats not what im interested in. I would like to use the new Dashboard that is designed to allow for all the new bells and whistles, but finding it hard to believe what i would consider basic functionality is missing.

 I agree, and this addition would be a massive advance for the UX.  I spend way too much time explaining to clients why it doesn’t work that way or why they can’t have a grid on that page type. 

The grid page type is built into interfaces, but it’s hidden. You have to start off with a list view, and then go to “visualizations” in the right margin, and choose “grid”.

You can also edit fields inline, and you can choose which fields you want to be editable or non-editable.
