The right column of the expanded view where the revision history and comments are shown needs some UX improvements. Currently I feel I cannot invite clients of ours to use the comments as means of communication, because this view is far too cluttered with irrelevant information of rev. history.
It’d be great if I was able to only see comments, next to each other. Even better would be if I could actively toggle on to see the revision history. In my context, comments are far more useful than the rev. history.

Please consider adding the table UI as an option within your app for iPad Pro (at least the full size model), a la your desktop/browser UI.
Thank you,

What is the proposed idea/solution? Give airtable users the ability to automatically create new views based on conditions. How does is solve the user problems? Less time spent on repetitive admin work that can easily be automated.

What is the proposed idea/solution? org chart extension: rather than listing every single field beneath the table heading, creating a searchbar option for each table where you type the field name in and the extension then shows ONLY the fields across the base that are connected/impacted by changes to that field. flow chart extension: (1)Allowing for more than a hundred records to be included, (2) arranging them to fill the screen rather than listed in a line regardless of whether they are connected to other records and (3) allowing for the possibility to zoom in and out How does is solve the user problems? org chart extension: currently, this extension is only practical for relatively simple bases. this change would allow for more focused conceptualizing and trouble-shooting of bases. flowchart extension: current configuration is very limited and difficult to use for tables/views with more than 100 records. these changes would allow for use with larger data sets and clearer visualization. How was this validated? Not sure what this means, but this is based on my own experience using Airtable. Who is the target audience? org chart extension: anybody who is interested in a powerful, usable visualization of their base (presumably most airtable users). i was extremely excited when i came across this extension, and i think the added elements mentioned above could make this much more useful. currently it feels more like a neat trick that doesn't work effectively for the bases that could benefit most flowchart extension: users interested in showing how records within a table are linked, particularly users trying to show a network of interrelated records (applicable for users in practically any field). my organization is building an international network of researchers on various types of perennial crops, and this extension could be an incredibly powerful tool for visualizing various elements within the network (hubs, sub-networks, geographical range of these sub-networks through color-coding... etc)

The search block accomplishes a way to find items in my tables, and I like it.
I believe a logical extension to this function would be to allow one to update many records (mass) as a 'find and replace" use case, in addition to searching the table.
Please consider adding this feature, as I believe it to be a very useful productivity case, and it will indeed be popular for all block users.

I imagine lots of people use Airtables to keep track of ordered lists that they want to filter, reorder, and remanipulate, but ultimately return back to the original ordered list.
Further, I imagine that from time to time they want to change how that ordered list is ordered…
ENTER THE RANK TYPE! It:
only accepts integer values
when a number is changed, if increments everything at or above it!
A table could even have multiple rank columns for different dimensions! It’s like magic! Orderly magic!

I need leading zeros for the Number field for shot lists for video. Leading zeros “1” would be written as “01” or “001”. This is useful for ordering files by name, inventory SKU’s, etc.

It would be extremely helpful if you add the export and share features to the area of the blocks. Currently, a screenshot is not helpful since numbers are not displayed in the graphic, so it won’t be captured by a screenshot.

Similar to how the grid view can group items, I’d like to be able to group items within the gallery view.
