I keep closing my Airtable application window because the Image view Close icon is so close to the Application icons. Please consider moving the Close icon further from the application icons.
I am talking about overlay window that opens when I click on the document attachment (e.g. picture). I am on Mac and using the Airtable app for MacOS (not sure if same issue is on Windows, since the Windows icons are on the right, so this may well be only limited to MacOS Airtable app.
Here is what I mean:

Hi guys, I use “Attachment” fields to upload images to my records. On my laptop I can select multiple images from my devices folders and and upload them all at once. Unfortunately it seems when uploading from my mobile, I have to select images one by one (Click “select files to upload”, select folder, select image, REPEAT for each image). Does anyone else experience the same when uploading from mobile phones?

If the content of the Attachment cell is an audio file, then a mini audio player is displayed in the cell. Add a keyboard shortcut to play that file when the cell is in focus.

When opening an attached document in Airtable it blocks the view of the record. It would be handy when a document opened in a new window, to be able to read an opened document and the connected record at the same time (for example to make notes/description from the document into the record).

We work a lot with MP3 files in our Airtable bases. When playing back an MP3 file in an expanded record view window, all we currently see is a gray square with a play icon in the middle. It would be fantastic to also see a basic representation of the file’s waveform (like in Dropbox). That way we can see what we hear. It would allow us to jump to a section in the file based on its waveform. The waveform would have to be placed exactly between the left and the right time indicators, so that the little black playback dot and the waveform line up correctly. Everyone working with audio files is used to working like this. This feature would make Airtable attractive to a whole new group of professional users. Here’s a mockup of what this expanded waveform view could look like:

I plan to use Airtable to record order information from my website. These records will be used to build the product that the customer ordered. These products are custom. I would like to be able to have the page designer automatically to output a PDF to the attachment field. I would also email this PDF as part of the customer order process workflow for our company. Thanks,

A client of mine just discovered a small issue with Airtable when it comes to the “Send Record” command. (“Send Record” is the command you can choose when right-clicking on a record.) If you have an attachment field as part of your record, Airtable will place a small thumbnail of your attachment in the outgoing email. This is fantastic! 🙂 However, if your attachment field is actually a LOOKUP FIELD that displays an attachment, then the thumbnail is no longer placed in the outgoing email. Airtable just places a link to the attachment instead. What’s interesting is that all other types of lookup fields (text, dates, numbers, etc.) seem to get placed in the outgoing email just fine — it seems like only attachments cause this issue.

I noticed that one rather quite simple but useful feature is missing in the context of adding pictures to a record. AS IS: Save picture to folder --> Open folder --> Drag and drop to record TO BE: Copy picture --> CMD + V to paste into record So essentially, I would like to copy & paste instead of taking the extra step via the folder. This would be a lot more convenient and save time.
