When we were using Microsoft Access it had really simple Design View interface on a table to manage the table structure, ordering fields, adding new fields, setting the datatype etc. Iโm not looking for all the same functionality but Iโm reminded of it when using Airtable managing views on field-heavy tables.
Managing the fields on these tables via the Hide Fields dropdown menu is slow and clumsy and my browser freezes when Iโm pulling fields up/down the list. With the table view sprawling horizontally thereโs too much lateral scrolling for what should be such a simple operation. The multi-select feature for fields made a bit of a difference, but being able to view the fields in a way that better utilises screen area would be a bit improvement for me.
I would love to see a dedicated design view for an Airtable View. Iโd take that over the Hide Fields menu any day!
