I would like to use Airtable to browse through my inventory with clients. When I do that I would like a much simpler look than when I use it as a database tool.
Say I’m running a furniture store and my client wants to see what we have available that’s not on view (he’s looking for a table). I would then go into a customer view window and search for tables and get a list of available tables. Instead of him seeing what I see when I work in Airtable I would like him to see a predefined view where some parts are hidden and when I click an item it pops up a fact sheet with a beautiful picture and relevant information underneath.

You have by far the best database offering IMO. However, what I really need to justify the move away from a spreadsheet is the ability to use data from one database along with some calculations to try and solve an allocation problem.
Eg. I have a set of assets that have various characteristics. I get a request for an asset of a particular type. With a spreadsheet on Google Sheets I can select that request and my assets get scored according to their suitability for this particular request. Then display that list and choose from it to allocate an asset.
An ability to do that within Airtable or via an easily linked platform would be essential to any spreadsheet replacement database.
Thanks!

Hi,
First of all, I’m having a Great experience using Airtable.
No doubt for me, it’s a Great solution.
Sure there’re rooms for improvement and plenty of functionalities to create.
One of them would be to have a MAX and MIN function for strings.
My use case is 2 linked tables, Master and Details.
I need to have a RollUp column in Master that refers to a MAX(value) of a string column in Detail.
Any other ways I can achieve that?
Keep the good work,
Cheers,
Berni

For most content, I like to have all the text visible, but I don’t want the column to be any wider than it needs to be.
Excel lets users auto-size columns (and rows) so that they’re just wide (or tall) enough to fit all their content.
The Excel shortcut for this useful feature is to double-click the right edge of the column header.

Can the number of records displayed in the list view be included either in the header or footer of the list, such as it is in the web version.

I am interested in linking my Airtable data to create graphs, charts or maps without having to export to Excel. Are there any existing apps I can link to for this feature? If not, I’d like to see it as a future feature.
Keep up the great work. Really enjoying using Airtable. Thank you!

When selecting values in a Multiple Option field, you must click the “select an option” button in between each value you select. This is true on both grid view and form view. I have Multiple Options fields that have over fifty options (in once case, all the towns in a county). Selecting more than a couple/few of those gets pretty tedious.
Since a Multiple Option field is expected to have multiple values, could the pop-up selection box be made to remain active until all of the desired values are selected? You’re already doing this very well with your “Hide Columns” box:

How can I see in the main menu that the base with a “Shared view via Private link”?
It would be better if there are any mark or sign on the base’s icon.
