Needs to be a way that items put in a block and be “locked” in place so you can’t move them by accident (right click, lock item, unlock item) also “undo and redo” funtionality. ... View more

It would be good to be able to chart table data using a date range in addition to the existing options of bucket by day, week, month, quarter, year… etc. The use case being if you want to visualize data in date ranges that correspond to business reporting financial years. For example, in Australia, the financial year runs from 1 July to 30 June. In UK, the financial year runs 1 April to 30 March. ... View more

I’m currently using Airtable as a daily planner on my phone. For space I want as few columns as possible, however, it’s sometimes important to have a reference such as an image or a link. As these are ‘notes’ to the rest of the table it would be nice to have them in a compact column rather than two separate columns. ... View more

Clearly a low-impact issue, but a trivial fix, as well. In the relatively few places Airtable presents bases in an alphabetized list, the list should be ordered by first non-emoji character. Currently, given the officially sanctioned practice of using emojis as ‘cover images’ for base icons, any base containing an initial emoji is alphabetized — by emoji — after an alphabetized listing of all bases sans emoji. (In comparison, lists of bases that use Airtable’s built-in graphics ignore those graphics in ordering the list.) On a related note, list alphabetization is, for some reason, case-sensitive. This results in the overall list actually comprising three sub-lists: [Non-emoji bases, A-Z] [Non-emoji bases, a-z] [Emoji bases, :number sign: to :nazar amulet:, presumably] ... View more

Here’s a little UI problem: if you narrow the column on a link field with only one link record, you will only have the “X” for deleting the link to click on – it’s too easy to click into and delete the link. When the column gets too narrow to allow someone to be able to interact normally, a click could just expand the column enough to be usable. -Donald! image|215x132 ... View more

I work for a media company (JOE.co.uk) that manages multiple kinds of content through different tables in a single Airtable base. A few examples of the types of content we manage with Airtable (each in a separate table in one base): Live-tweeting football matches Scheduling for longform investigative pieces ‘On this day…’ nostalgia posts I would love to be able to selectively collate items with date fields from multiple tables into one combined calendar that makes it really easy to answer questions like ‘What’s happening today?’ in one single place. Is that possible? If not, is it something you’d consider? ... View more

I have discovered that simple formula fields retain formatting options. For example, something like: {Hours}*{Hourly rate} …may be formatted as a currency with a preferred level of precision and currency symbol. But more complex formulas, such as those with conditional logic, do not have formatting options available. For example: IF( {Hours}=0, "", "£"&{Hours}*{Hourly rate} ) …is formatted as left-aligned text whether one likes it or not, even though the result is intended as a currency value. In my example, all I am trying to achieve is to prevent empty {Hours} values from getting reported as £0. So it would be great if formulas that can retain formatting options were provided a checkbox to Hide NULL values. I use the word ‘NULL’ here to mean any value that equates to empty: “” in an empty text field 0 in an empty numeric field There may be other values worth embracing such as “FALSE” or “NULL” There will be times when people do want empty value to be visible, which is why I propose this as an option. ...
