Please add better default display options to Kanban cards. The current options are very limited, and the default display makes terrible use of space. This is specially applicable to Task based cards with no image or attachment associated. For example, my default display can only displays 2-3 words in the card title (see image below). This makes it very hard to have a broad view of tasks without having to click on each one individually. By contrast, Target Process resolves this by wrapping titles and making better use of space (see image below). IMHO this is major limitation of the Kanban view that largely renders it useless. ...

I love the new Base Schema block. As a content strategist, it has some really great potential applications. The degree of control in the settings, however, is far too limited to be useful for complex bases—which is likely to be a major use case. Some controls I’d need to have to be able to put this to practical use (in order of priority): Select which tables within a base to map Choose to map all fields, or only non-hidden fields. Apply specific colors to connection types that persist, not just on rollover Apply specific line type (e.g. dashed, dotted, solid) to connection types that persist, not just on rollover Additionally, I’d love to see the following enhancements: Export to PDF or PNG (table stakes for any visualization, if you ask me) Bézier control over the line curves I so want to be able to make good use of this block, and will continue playing with it in more simple bases. From my limited interaction so far, it’s not super usable for the types of bases it would be truly useful for. I do love that I can rearrange the position of the tables, and the interactivity of the lines is nice (though feels like secondary importance to some of the stuff in my list above). Thanks!! ...

It seems that there is no way to get photos attached to records to export. I use a lot of photos - images are a key reason that I turned to AirTable. But it is frustrating that I can’t back the photo aspects of my work to my hard drive. Photo exports could also help AirTable work better in a contact database capacity. ... View more

If would be great to be able to copy single select & multi-select list options from base or table to another. Within the same base, I know that I should use the linking function. In some cases I do, but most of the time, I want the ability to color each option for a visual reference so I end up using single or multi-select over again with the same options. ... View more

This will be the perfect addon after the " Field & table editing permissions" and help avoiding so much errors! As simple as a checkbox, when it’s TRUE nobody can modify the record (except for formula, Rollup, Lookup fields) It could be the same look as checkbox but simply using the image of a lock. As options for the field ; ACTIVATE/DESACTIVATE Scripts can modify record while he’s locked (Could also select wich script) ACTIVATE/DESACTIVATE Blocks can modify record while he’s locked (Could also select wich block) ACTIVATE/DESACTIVATE Kanban view can modify record while he’s locked (Could also select wich view) ACTIVATE/DESACTIVATE Calendar view can modify record while he’s locked (Could also select wich Calendar view) ACTIVATE/DESACTIVATE Disable button fields while lock CHOOSE 1 OR MANY Fields you want to lock when activated (by default it would be all field, the same was as “Modified by” & “Last Time Modified” field) How I would use it : In my expense tracking base I would add a “Lock Record field”. Then I would set this field permission as ONLY my accountant would be able to edit it. Then when he validate the amount of the expense in the bank, all other user will not be able to modify the amount anymore. Same thing for a purchasing request base, if the manager agree to buy the item the employee requested, when he will lock the record the employee will no longer be able to change qty and item description. ...

As a person who is red/green colorblind, it would be immensely helpful to hover over a specific color and see a label telling me what color I am looking at. I find it challenging to select the appropriate colors for single select, multi-select, and conditionally formatted records that make sense to my clients. Another option would be to allow users to specify their own custom color using hex codes. Thanks. ... View more

“Expand Record” would be ten times more useful if I could configure field visibility so that more fields are visible automatically in expanded view than are visible in grid view. I’d like to be able to create compact grid views showing (say) six fields, and when user clicks the “expand record” button (or types Space), the expanded view dialog would show all six of the grid fields PLUS other fields per my configuration for that expanded view. I am aware that there is a button in expanded that says something like “14 hidden fields” and I can click that button to see those hidden fields. But in addition to being an extra pain in the neck, this is less helpful to my users than it needs to be. Airtable often requires the use of utility fields that users never need to view. I’d like to be able to continue hiding THOSE fields, but show others that would be useful to users. I can think of different ways this might implemented. The easiest way that would work for me, would be to have TWO columns of show/hide toggle buttons in the hidden fields setup dialog: one for the grid and one for the expanded view. In other words, add a second column next to the yellow column highlighted in the screenshot below. I do not think it is necessary or even very helpful to be able to show a field in expanded view that is NOT shown in grid view. So if the field is not visible in the grid, the option to show it in the expanded view would be disabled. Nor would it be necessary or helpful to be able to order the fields differently. I’d just like to be able to toggle some of the fields to show in expanded view but be hidden in grid. I’d be very very happy to get what I’m asking for above. But since I’m asking, it would be fantastic if it were also possible to create sections in the expanded view — even if it were a matter simply of inserting a dividing line. ... View more

Our company currently uses the Pro version of Airtable and it would be SO helpful if we could have at least just ONE Other workspace for archival purposes. It’s a bummer the options go from a single workspace in the first three plan options and then goes to unlimited for the Enterprise. This jump is unfair to the growing companies where the enterprise plan doesn’t make sense… Just one additional workspace would allow us to have an “Archive” workspace and separate new projects with past/finished projects that we still need to keep data for and reference. Thank you for your consideration. ... View more
