What is the proposed idea/solution? The referenced field order can be changed to the selected View by setting "Limit record selection to a view" How does is solve the user problems? The fields you want to see when selecting linked records should be different for each table or View. While "Limit record selection to a view" allows filtering of records, it would be helpful to be able to set the field order as well. Who is the target audience? Users frequently using the link record --- The field order of a table when referenced from a linked record depends on the first View of the referenced table. It would be very helpful if we could set the recently added (I forget when, but it wasn't there in the past) "Limit record selection to a view" on the link record to change the field order to the selected View.

Would love the ability to create subheadings under which to group multiple fields. For example, the ability to have a “Channel” field heading, which 4 different fields – Organic, Direct, Social, referral – would appear under. Then those groups/subheadings can be collapsed/expanded, which would simultaneously collapse/expand all the fields that fall under it. ... View more

I understand how to copy a view configuration to another view. I would like to be able to do the same between two separate tables. This is the situation where I found the limitation, and although there is a workaround I am trying to do this without duplicating data or efforts on separate tables within the base. I have a Project Management Database in which the first table is a list of “Projects” with a drop down list to assign one of 9 colors to each project. In the view configuration for that base I “ color the records the same as ” the color field. In the same database I have a table with a list of “Tasks” in which I have a field which links “Projects” and a lookup table to show the color for each project. In the view configuration for that base “ Records are assigned the first color that they match ” and I match the color using the Project color lookup field. I copy that view configuration to a Calendar and Gantt view and I have a Tasks calendar and gantt chart color coded by project. Swell! In the same database I have a table with a list of “Subtasks” and a bunch of other tables which all link back to the same Projects table. I would like to be able to copy the view configuration from the “Tasks” table views into the other tables without either recreating the view configuration for each table or copying the drop down “Color” field from the original “Projects” table to each of the other project related tables. Is copying a view configuration to another table a feature that is in development or does anyone have a workaround that allows linking back to one table without having to manually duplicate view configurations or fields on all of the other tables? Thank you in advance for any feedback! ... View more

All - I have seen this suggestion before but since the Views sidebar functionality is being currently developed - I thought would ask. It would be great to have collapsible groups in the Views panel. Thanks Jonathan ... View more

I’d love to be able to link/tie a subset of view configurations between views of a table together, so that I can save time/maintain flow when temporarily adjusting a certain configuration that I want consistent across similar views. This normally comes up for me while I am doing planning for my week or during product planning. I have two or more views that are either variations on the same view (e.g. four calendar views titled “this week”, “next two weeks”, “this month”, “next month”) or similar views (e.g. a monthly calendar, a timeline view, and a gantt chart). When planning, I might have certain filters or colors that I am cycling through. I don’t love that I have to monkey with the views as I go to get them consistent. It totally ruins my flow, especially when I am doing some planning with others. I know I can use the “copy another view’s configuration” feature, but it is still ruins flow and there are some parts I don’t actually want to copy. See some of my thoughts on additional requirements for the feature. These are likely specific to my persona or how I might use it, but thought they might be helpful. FYI, configurations = view configurations. I’d like the option to synch either a subset or all configurations between views I’d like to be able to freely change unsynched configurations in synched views I’d like to be able to layer additional configurations without them being synched across views for configurations that can be layered (i.e. filters, etc.) I’d like to be able to change synched configurations within one of the synched views ...

Shift + Scroll was working very well up until a few weeks ago. I am not sure what you guys changes, but it is definitely only a bug related to Airtable. Shift + Scroll works fine in every other windows application. Also tried the following from a few completely different PCs and the bug is still present. So it is most definitely Airtable related. Whenever you hold shift and scroll, it moves horizontally fine. But at the end of the scroll, it moves a few rows up or down depending on the direction you’ve moved your mouse scroll wheel. This was not the case up until a few weeks ago. It all started happening when you updated something. So please try to fix this one. It is very annoying and makes horizontal scrolling rather useless. ... View more

A short list of things that I still can’t believe I can’t re-order in Airtable: view filter terms view grouping fields automations (!) Bonus points if we could also turn on/off filter terms and grouping fields w/o having to delete them and re-add them again. With literally everything else in Airtable re-orderable (in a very slick way), why can’t these be re-ordered? Dustin ... View more

What is the proposed idea/solution? It would be more robust, avoid more errors and dave time if form fields could be pre filled manually or dynamically. While designing a form, each field would offer a "manual" and a "dynamic" option just like in automations. Hiding (or locking) pre filled fields would also work from the interface so that the pre filled info is guaranteed to be included in the submission. How does is solve the user problems? At the moment we pre fill forms and hide fields through the suggested URL strings. As soon as parts of the URL go missing while being shared and shared and copied and pasted, the whole thing no longer works. ... View more

I love the ability to display Single-select and Multi-select fields as either a list or dropdown in forms, as it provides a much better visual indication of the options and just a better UX for survey respondents. However, this cannot yet be done for Linked Record fields, which makes their usage awkward in surveys (the options aren’t as discoverable and for a survey question that allows multiple-selection, a user has to manually click the “+ Add” button each time and select their choices vs. being able to select from a list all at once). Single-select field as a list How multiple-selection looks for a Linked Record field… I just want this same option for Linked Record fields… ... View more
