I’m using Airtable to document design elements. Is it possible to make hex code a field type so that when I enter in a hexcode I can see what color its referring to? Slack has something similar where if you send a hexcode it recognizes it as a color and displays it in the message. ... View more

I am attempting to find a way to link one record multiple times. I’m trying to cost jobs and need to add the necessary material which I have in a separate table in the same base. I can link multiple records and have them add up however I cannot link one record more than once which is necessary because every record is in a quantity of 1. So for example one job may require 5 feet of wire where another would require 10. I cant change the original record to reflect these numbers because I would have to make a new record so they don’t conflict and by doing so would make the products page too large to be able to update as prices change. I attached an image of the basic setup in the table. I don’t think there are any current features to accomplish this. ... View more

I don’t know if it has always been asked, but it would be great, when we add a date in a date field on iOS, to be able to select directly the year of the date we want to add … I just spend few minutes to select a date of an event that happened in 2012. Without the year in the menu, there are no point of reference so we can know in “what year” we are currently searching a date. The iOS App’ is far from being perfect… Many things are missing but this one is particularly annoying when working on the App’. ... View more

Would be nice to be able to quickly switch between Bases and Workspaces without having to go back to Home. Similar to how you can switch between Views for a Table. ... View more

Just a faster time input, scrolling each time is not optimal and could be a clock interface or the ability to decrease the range of time to day time. ... View more

Hey! When we choose a cover field for the gallery view, we have two options: Crop or Fit. My suggestion is to add more options there. It would be useful to have an alignment setting when the cover field is cropped. By default the pictures are centred. I made some mockups of how the option would look like, and the impact it would have on my specific use case. Default would be the same: ... View more

I’ve been looking at a similar topic and wonder if you would consider to add a summary column. I imagine it to be similar to the summary row at the bottom, but make it possible to calculate a rolling sum. I have columns for date, debit, and credit, so the function would have to look up the previous date. Then it would add the previous sum, the current debit, and subtract the current credit. This would preserve the visual independence of records and still work if they are reverse or out of order. I realise that this can be achieved with existing functionality but I am a new user and feel like it would be a common enough use case. Sorry for the cryptic explanation, I’m happy to elaborate. I’m sure that people will come up with similar calculations that can be attached to a record in a column on the right edge. ... View more

Love the updates in transitioning from the Gantt block to the Gantt view. However, a couple things that would be really useful for us! In the Gantt app we used to be able to arrange the gantt blocks so they either cascaded by start date or by end date. This seems to be gone? Grid View has the option to “Collapse all Groups” or “Expand all Groups.” This would be really helpful for us in Gantt View as we have long development & production timelines. Having to collapse & expand all of our groupings individually is frustrating. Additionally our gantt is in a tasks table & then we have a linked table for key beats/stages of our projects & associated info. However, when the Linked Record groups are collapsed, they aren’t in chronological order (defined in the Beats table) & the resulting gantt looks like a mess. I’ve tried a workaround by using a formula & script to add a numerical order to the Name of the record. It works somewhat but having those numbers in front isn’t the cleanest look. It’d be great if we could sort Linked Records by another field (like a date) or have a sort function on Gantt view to sort the groups by other fields somehow. ... View more

It would be a huge help if there was an ability to filter records based on whether or not my account is “watching” it. For example, to create a Personal View that only includes records that have me added as a collaborator or that I have chosen to watch. ... View more
