Is there a way to make the column description tooltips appear in the form views (Expand Record and in forms you create)? If not, I’d like to request this. ... View more

So this happens to me all the time. I’m at the bottom of the grid view of a pretty large table, when I have a question about a piece of data in another table. So I switch to that table to find what I’m looking for there. When I switch back to my original table, I’m sent back to the top of that particular view instead of where I was, and have to scroll back down. If I’m switching back and forth fairly quickly, this becomes really annoying. ... View more

hi, i have seen a request for mp4 (or video) files to b attachable to a record in airtable. can we add to that request for attachments for other common file types (e.g. pdf / txt / ms office) too, please ? tks: -nik- ... View more

I’m generally having a hard time seeing various areas of a record, especially when all fields are not populated. Whether or not an attachment exists is especially difficult to determine when looking at the database. In the screenshot below, if I look carefully I can see there is an attachment icon, but it’s really washed out and hard to spot. Would it be possible to make the icon stand out more, or even better, to allow the filename or some other label to display next to it so that it would be easier to spot? [I guess this is an aside, but I feel like I’m lacking some basic browser understanding that would help me find a “theme” or something so that I could have an easier go of reading web pages lately. Using Firefox 44.0.2 on Windows Home 7 Premium Edition.] ... View more

First of all, thanks for creating the Android app and inviting me to the beta. I am really enjoying it. The PDF viewer in the Android app does not seem to be able to zoom in and out on the PDF as it does in the iOS version of the app. I have a base which will be a repository of PDFs for people that will need to view these PDFs on mobile devices (both iOS and Android). As a workaround, I’m sharing the PDFs with Google Drive and using the very good Drive viewer, but it’s an extra step I do not need to go through in the iOS app. A better viewer would be a huge improvement. Keep up the great work! Thanks, Mike E. ... View more

I was doing some changes in some code app for my 3D printer firmware, along with some other dabbling here and there over the years and noticed some of these systems make better use of colored fonts than others. Today I was trying to help someone else in this community and was typing up the following formula: DATETIME_FORMAT(IF(Minutes < 1, CREATED_TIME(), DATEADD(NOW(), Minutes - 1, ‘minute’)), ‘MM-DD-YYYY hh:mm a’) I was able to create that by adding a piece, saving it, then looking up the next piece. To insure that every step along the way I had the right bits and pieces, it would have been incredibly useful if each nested function was a different color. So you could keep track more easily. ...

I would love to have a feature that would search a given table by a field or set of fields to find and surface duplicate rows. It would then be great to be able to take a pre-defined action on duplicated rows such as delete, or merge. Dealing with dupes is always a pain with large data sets or importing new data into a set where some records may already exist. A way to deal with dupes in a somewhat automated way would be really helpful. ... View more

The ability to input a new record into my maintenance table requires choosing a record to link from my assets table. The issue of using auto number Unique Id’s for each table means the linked record search is not very useful. I have a table of more than 100 assets of different types. The “find a record to link” search function only lets you search according to the unique id, without being able to thin the search down by using the other columns like Type, or Asset Designation, or Manufacturer or Serial Number. I believe a suggestion was made to allow a user to create a filter for the “find a record to link” search, but I think simply expanding the search capability beyond the first column would be ideal. ...

I desperately want to be able to bold things and less desperately want to anchor links. I’m moving my entire team to Airtable because Airtable is awesome (the linking bases! it makes tracking things so easy!), but it’s really hard to format long text that’s …extra long without any style options. Thanks! ... View more
