Hi,

Is there any way of wrapping the text in the header fields so that I don’t have to have such a wide column to fit the header in? In the example above I want to be able to see “Genre” rather than “Ge…” and “Proofer 1” instead of “Pro…”

Thanks in advance!

Kate

Please add a wrap text function that emulates the 20-year-old feature in excel. This is not rocket science. It will make your product much more attractive, and more likely to maintain users such as myself.

+1 to this. Without this feature, gallery is useless. Please add!!

It makes me very curious that this is something Airtable has ignored for 4 years (there’s another post on the same subject from September 2016).

I understand blocks, automations get priority, but this can’t be that difficult to implement, can it?

This is definitely a turn-off when I’m trying to bring people from Excel/Sheets into Airtable.

Dear Santa, let’s make the developers hear us and add word wrap to headers, cells and lookup data selection!

Desperately need this too. I have currency fields with long headers. I have to download into Excel to wrap the headers just to get a handle on my data.
