I would love the ability to reshuffle and group Automations. I often have 10-20+ automations in one Base and they are created at different times. It would be a great help if i could organize them in a chronological, or dependant, order as i add automations to the list. Currently if i create an automation that is the 2nd to trigger in the base but i created it months after the others that already exist, it sits at the bottom of the list and makes it very difficult to remember which Automation triggers in which sequence. (I currently have a stack of 6 automations that trigger one after another but are all jumbled in the Automation tab)

It would be great to be able to select mulitple objects in the Page designer block. I’ve just created a layout that needs everything shifting by a few nudges. I’m currently moving things one by one. Any work arounds?

Commenting would be far more helpful if it behaved in Airtable as it does in products like G Suite and Office 365 – comments can be resolved and therein no longer displayed as an action item (in the case of Airtable denoted by the small number in the far left column of the record).

What I would personally like is the ability to add a comment to any given field for any given record (akin to the cell-level comments that appear as red triangles in the corner of cells in Excel). There are times when I want to add additional or qualifying comments/notes at a field-level in records without cluttering up the view. Excel examples: Add comment Comment indicator On-hover Edit comment I merely want what could be considered a comment mode/layer that could be applied to any given cell in any given field in any given table. Excel, Google Sheets, and many other spreadsheet-based applications provide this functionality. The purpose is to be able to collaborate or add additional notes or comments in context without affecting the data in the cells themselves. This essentially requesting the same functionality that is currently available for adding field descriptions to field headers, but also allowing this at an individual cell level. There are limitless use cases for this functionality: Carrying out a collaborative conversation Providing an editor’s note for a publicly shared table Adding a comment about an outlier result in a data table Adding notes about a set of images. Adding a disclaimer

A simple idea: what if linked records could be colored? The conditions in the linked table would determine the color of the record. This would help counteract one of the many conundrums of having to choose between linked records and multi / single select fields. What do you think?

Easy, I have a lot of columns and it would be great that we could freeze panes so I don't have to be scrolling back and forth! Also I love how the base and other areas say how many records there are in that window, it would be great if that option would be on the list layout and last but not least, I love to have buttons like "New Form Here" for X reason, it would be great to be able to add buttons on list layout. Thanks!!

It would be extremely helpful to be able to color code the table. I’m not necessarily looking for color to be based on a condition (hence a different thread).
Example Case: There are five tables within an airbase. Two of those tables are focused on action: projects and tasks. Three are focused on people: the individuals themselves, the vendors they work for and their expertise. The tab for the two tables focused on action could be one color and the three tables focused on people are another.

Amazing Airtable team, please give us folders to organize those Automations. I have about 50 and have to plow through them. Ideally I would like to organize the automatons into folders and (in my case) I would name the folder similarly as the tables names where the automations are being used. That would make it easier to find the right automation I am looking for.

What is the proposed idea/solution? ...User is able to select multiple Views. Any changes applied to the first selected View are applied to the other selected Views (e.g. Column Width, Column Order, "Hide fields", "Filter", "Group", "Sort", "Color", "Row Height") How does is solve the user problems? ...Currently the process is manual for each View. This can be extremely time consuming and prone to human error, that can affect Synced Tables. Who is the target audience? ...Users who have more than one View per Table, especially users with a large number of Views per Table.

Hello! I very often go info my bases to copy 2/3 fields from a much larger base - It would be great to be able to use buttons to copy information from selected fields to the user’s clipboard to avoid unnecessary navigation. Here’s an example of what that might look like: https://jsfiddle.net/jfriend00/v9g1x0o6/ And a code logic example I was able to find during research: stackoverflow.com Click button copy to clipboard using jQuery jquery, html, css asked by Dishan TD on 05:53PM - 22 Mar 14 UTC
