I’d love to see a new data type that takes the URL of an image file and renders the image rather than just displaying the URL as a link. I would think that this would save you some storage space as well by letting us link to hosted files rather than pulling them in as attachments.

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,

Loving the new interface templates and designer. Been working on transferring all my old ones to the new setup so they can work on mobile, which is excellent! For my desktop users, we've been used to using [ctrl + f] in a grid view to have that little "pop-up" to find records. Now with the new search bar, we have to click on the bar to start typing. It would be great if [ctrl + f] would somehow jump us to that search bar. Not sure if this kind of thing is possible?

What is the proposed idea/solution? Add a new field called Rate—a number/currency column that can add a suffix (custom field) such as a unit. Same as how the Currency field works, where we can add a custom prefix, but this one adds a custom suffix. Additionally, we should still be able to format them (integer, decimal, currency). For example: 5 grams 9.81 m/s $9.99 /bundle How does this solve the user problems? This would remove the need to create a field for the unit and concatenate it using a formula field, allowing two fewer fields in a view. Who is the target audience? Everyone, most especially those who use Airtable for information, research, retail, and inventory.

What is the proposed idea/solution? Incorporating multi-select into the Page Designer extension so that multiple elements can be selected and moved simultaneously. How does this solve the user problems? Our team does a lot of work with the Page Designer extension to build printable schedules for events that we run. In doing so, we've noticed that we waste a lot of time moving individual elements one-by-one to restructure the page layout. I understand that editing multiple elements at once wouldn't be feasible for obvious reasons, but the ability to simply move a few text boxes at the same time feels like a no-brainer (and, selfishly, would save my team and me a lot of time).

The collaborator field is great. Is there any plan to allow dynamic filtering based on this column? E.g. when collaborator contains [me]?
Use case: I’ve got a team issues register using SharePoint. The default view shows the user only those records where their name (based on authenticated user account) is contained in a collaborator column.
I’d like to transition to Airtable, but would need to give users a “My Items” view where they can see only records which contain them as a collaborator, without the user being required to apply a filter themselves.

Portuguese is the first language for many of our employees and it would be great to have that as an option for the language preferences found in user settings.

There should be a place to submit, access and maintain verified databases that are useful across specific industries. For example, a base with all the current Members of U.S. Congress with fields like Name, State, District (etc); or a base with all Airports with their time zone, city and state. Or a list of every country or state with abbreviations, etc. I think it would be a welcome addition to the community.

Need the direction of the fields in a table from right to left for usage of hebrew data. Also the direction of writing and aligning text in hebrew needs to be from right to left. It becomes frastrating even more when including english letters or numbers.
