Hello, On desktop, when a view is locked, the chosen sort order can still by applied by tapping “Apply” (since Auto Sort is still not a thing). But on the iOS app at least (I haven’t tested Android), when a view is locked the “Apply” button is greyed out and cannot be chosen. Ideally, the sort order itself could not be changed, but the sort could still be applied. At the very least, it should work the same way on desktop and on mobile. Thank you!

Is there an easy way to see which records have comments in a Gallery view? I see in Grid views, the comment icon appears to the left of the Record Name… but can’t find any equivalent in Gallery view. We’re using a table to track image assets and are primarily using Gallery views to look at our records.

I work in film and video production. When I bring on a crew, I have them fill out a form which lists name, e-mail address, mobile phone, food allergies, scheduling conflicts, their production department, and their production title. The problem is, this information needs to be distributed into two different tables: One table holds name, e-mail, mobile phone, & food allergies-- that information tends to stay the same from production to production, so I keep that in a “master contact table” (which I also use as my general address book) Another table (the “Roster” table) holds the person’s scheduling conflicts, production department, and production title-- that information differs from production to production, so I don’t want to keep it in my master contact table because the same contact might work on different productions in different roles and I need to keep track of who did exactly what on each production. (Yes, I could just keep it all in the “Forms table” and try to manage everything with filtered views, but that would be unwieldy because each contact could be entered multiple times-- making it clunky as an address book) Because air table forms only allow information to go into a single table, I have to go through some crazy gymnastics in order to get the information from the crew form into the appropriate fields. Currently, I do this: I have a THIRD table, a “Forms” table which collects information for all of the fields. I have a Zap which 1) pulls the name/phone/e-mail/allergies info from the forms table into the master contact table (updating an existing record or creating a new record as needed) 2) copies the name/department/role/scheduling conflicts info into the rosters table 3) links the name record in the rosters table to the name record in the master contact table (and finally) 4) deletes the record in the forms table once all of the information has been moved into the correct place. This multi-step Zap costs $25/month. However, if I could create a form with field inputs from multiple tables (instead of being limited to my form only inputting information into a single table), I could save myself a lot of money and headaches.

I’m using the calendar view to program a conference and I love the drag-and-drop and drag-to-expand functionality. This is making a task I used to struggle through SO much easier. However these functions only support 15-minute increments – I can start at 9:00 or 9:15 but not 9:10 or 9:20. And I can make events last for 15 or 30 minutes, but not 20 or 40. I know I can set the time however I want once I click to open the event. I’m looking to be able to do this via drag-and-drop and drag-to-expand. thank you

Is there currently a way to show multiple color codes for each record on grid view? It seems somewhat pointless to just have the option to have a color code “alert” for one thing, even if there is a hierarchy for what color shows. I need to be quickly alerted of multiple things!

Is there any way how I can get the calendar view to display a custom period across two months. I need to plan a project that starts in early May and ends in early June and not being able to see the whole period is quite a deal breaker. Am I missing something? (I already tried using a timeline block, but that doesn’t work either cause you loose the days of the week)

When using a shared base link it is currently not possible to submit a response to a form. When you navigate to a form page the following message pops up: This means that instead of being able to provide a single shared base link, I need to provide a separate link to the form which creates a slightly confusing user experience. Enabling submission of forms from shared base links makes it a very powerful tool for sharing information with and collecting information from a customer base.

When in expanded view for a record, it would be handy to be able to show or hide a field by clicking its drop down arrow and selecting “Show Field” or “Hide Field” from the menu.

Hello, One of my tables will be filled by forms. That table has a linked field to a table that, as a primary field, has an autocompleting ID. When using the forms view, it shows only the “1, 2, 3, etc.” (image given), making it impossible to know exactly what is being selected. It would be very useful if: I could choose what column from the table linked on the field will be shown, or The dropdown shown on the forms view could be the same we have when choosing in grid view (image given). Thx!

Hello - I know there is a response page you can edit text on that is sent to a form submitter, but is there a way to have an email sent once the form is submitted? I’m looking to create a more personal feel… Thanks! Vicky
