Exciting new additions to Interface Designer

The news about Galleries in the Interface Designer this is exciting and disappointing in equal parts - when will this feature behave more like the ‘regular’ AirTable Base Gallery, which is the base for many of our day-to-day workflows. While it’s honestly awesome to see the gallery in the interface, the implementation now forces users to adjust their workflows that exist already, in many cases.

In ours particularly there is three main issues

• Galleries don’t allow manual sorting
• Gallery Preview behaviours differs, not allowing crop/scale options
• Gallery Pagination actually cumbersome for many image-related workflows

Any chance some of those issues are on your roadmap already?

Is the charts feature rolled out to all users yet? I can’t seem to find where to add an additional Y-Axis value.

Welcome to the community @Chris_Lam !

This feature should now be rolled out to all users, I would reach out to Airtable Support and they can look into your account specifically :slightly_smiling_face:

Any plans to allow creating/duplicating records in grids with linked record sources?

Love the grouping in record review! Is there a way to collapse/uncollapse all?

@Martin_Kranz Thank you for sharing these issues with us, we really appreciate it! I’ve escalated these to our product team for evaluation :raised_hands:

Thanks Jordan, I have added a button onto the newly created Interface sending users to the old airtable experience for those tasks that are reliant on sorting and access to buttons, but it’s not really ideal as i need to send them to back and forth.

On top of the points in my original post, I have also observed strange behaviour with the gallery view when the preview image is set to a editable attachment field, it will not reliably allow for users to drag & drop images into the record to upload. This worked once or twice, but now seems to be not allow me to add files directly by dragging them (which is a real shame)

Also, i dont seem to have multi-line chart options enabled? Is that possible

@Martin_Kranz thanks for this, the images part seems like a bug, I’ll get this over to the team now.

In terms of the multi-line chart feature, the way to do this is to group them!

I’m just sitting here hitting refresh until Interfaces has a “new record” button. Until then, the entire thing is pretty much pointless for me/us.

Thanks Jordan. Is there any chance that you will let connect more than one filter to an element? Now we can only connect one filter and sometimes you have more than one type of filter; I think i’ll be very useful.

You need to look into linking pre-filled forms up, because a one-works-for-all-situation new record button just isn’t feasible in this environment.

Well I don’t know about everybody else, but I’m so excited about Interfaces. Can’t wait until you can release more views, like calendar, Gantt and Kanban as well as better, more granular permissions. One feature I’m hoping to see is the ability to embed things not linked to a particular record (like images and videos, iframes) or at least the ability to preview links linked to a record, which leads to the next feature I want to see - an integration of all AirTable apps into the interface.

Is there a way to share an interface with non-collaborators? Just so they can view?

Welcome to the Airtable community.

Currently, sharing an interface requires adding the person as a collaborator. Non-collaborators currently cannot access an interface.
