What is the proposed idea/solution? Currently, Maps extension (which utilizes Google Maps API) supports dynamic marker size "by field"'; however, this field may only be a static `Number` (or equivalent such as `Rating`). A computed number such as `Count` should be eligible as a source field. How does is solve the user problems? In my case, I am trying to size markers based on a `Link` to a separate table. I wish to count the number of linked records as the determinant of map market size. How was this validated? Tested with four columns: Number, Single line text having number values, Rating, and Count of linked record. Number and Rating are eligible fields for `by Field` map marker size configuration option, the others are not (grayed out). Who is the target audience? Any user of Map extension.

I’ve created a bar chart with stacked data and I’m looking for a way to add the total to the top of each bar. Seems like this would be a basic function but Airtable Support has informed me that this is not available. Has anybody else run into this issue and found a work-around solution? Thanks!

I love the new Base Schema block. As a content strategist, it has some really great potential applications. The degree of control in the settings, however, is far too limited to be useful for complex bases—which is likely to be a major use case. Some controls I’d need to have to be able to put this to practical use (in order of priority):
Select which tables within a base to map
Choose to map all fields, or only non-hidden fields.
Apply specific colors to connection types that persist, not just on rollover
Apply specific line type (e.g. dashed, dotted, solid) to connection types that persist, not just on rollover
Additionally, I’d love to see the following enhancements:
Export to PDF or PNG (table stakes for any visualization, if you ask me)
Bézier control over the line curves
I so want to be able to make good use of this block, and will continue playing with it in more simple bases. From my limited interaction so far, it’s not super usable for the types of bases it would be truly useful for. I do love that I can rearrange the position of the tables, and the interactivity of the lines is nice (though feels like secondary importance to some of the stuff in my list above).
Thanks!!

I am loving the Page Designer Block. For Destiny Search Project it is going to save us HOURS of work, and also give us forms that we have until now dreamed of being able to create easily. I have seen the request for an embed of blocks which I also would love and will be helpful (I just signed up for the beta) The next feature I would like to see is that when a Page is created in the Page Designer it has a Field in the record that is associated with it. This would be similar to how attachments work for pdf but would be a direct link to the page design for that specific record. In our use case we have set up an awesome form that we can give teams when they are dispatched on a search assignment, it includes team members, map, and information. Currently, though we have to open page designer, then find the right record in order to print. If it was embedded as part of the record it would be much more easily accessible. Again thanks for creating a tool that has been game changing in our organization and providing of services.

Org charts are immensely useful, especially for recreating sitemaps such as in my use case. It would also be immensely useful to be able to share/embed the block without having to share the entire table, but in the meantime an “Export to PDF” option should do it. Also useful for exporting to PDF: a toggle to expand all records multiple “secondary” fields, in the same way Kanban views work.

I’m creating a dashboard of different chart blocks that I want to be able to share with others in my organization. I know there’s a beta feature for sharing an individual block (in this case, one chart), but if I want to share a dashboard (a set of charts) with someone, is there a way to do that? This feels like an important feature to be able to use and I’m not sure how to do it or if it’s possible. Thanks!

Hi, I have been working on creating a Marketing Calendar with Month, and a generic type as the columns and rows respectively using the ‘Matrix Block’ for my current project. However, I would also like to be able to print the block, but currently there is no option to print. I’ve worked around this by printing the webpage as a PDF and resizing to fit within a page, but a more natural way of doing this would be helpful. Thank you.

I would like to have the ability to set a default font for the Page Designer block in our Airtable settings or in the table settings somewhere so we don’t have to change it from Roboto every time 🙂

What is the proposed idea/solution? You can "hide identical fields", but not computed fields (which can't be merged). Let users choose to also hide the computed fields. How does is solve the user problems? It will be easier to have an overview of the records when those fields are hidden. Less scrolling
