Searching function in dynamic view
Hello- I really need a search function in dynamic view or I need a way to have interactive reports without granting people access to the underlying sheet. I don't understand how anyone can use dynamic view that has more than a page worth of data. Nobody has time to create filters everytime they need to look at something.
Re: Smartsheet Backup and Recovery
Agreed, we need a true backup option! Especially given the glitch that allows rows to be overwritten if two people have a sheet open at the same time, we need to be able to see multiple past versions in order to recover lost data.
Re: Dynamic View Logic should behave like Conditional Form Logic (aka "live")
100% Agree!
I would also like Dynamic View section to add additional Heading/Description, Divider would be + Plus!
Sheet Summary Formatting - Sections with Headers, Dividers
I use sheet summaries often to help my team quickly see what the overall metrics are for a given sheet.
I wish you could format the sheet summary to create sections. If I'm measuring three different types of metrics on a single sheet, it would be wonderful if I could create sections within the sheet summary for each of those types of metrics. My blue sky dream would be to have each section have collapsible headers so I could enable viewing of just one section at a time, but even the ability to add a text header to each section and divider lines would greatly increase the usability of complex metrics being stored in the summaries.
I'm attaching a screenshot of a version of this I mocked up in case I haven't explained it that well. This is from a survey we did following a series of L&D sessions across our business and would actually have 5 sections in the summary sheet if it were possible to do so.
Saving a "Form" for later use without submitting as of yet
I have employees that try to start filling out their form as they work their 8-hour shift throughout before submitting. It seems that there are times that they leave for a while, and it automatically shuts down without saving their information that they currently had in there.
I heard that there is not a way to save the information before clicking on submit to be added to the spreadsheet. Is this something that maybe can be done in the future?
Re: Workspace Shared to panel
Likewise with everyone above... this is what our users see.
We have power users, myself in IT as well as our project managers. We work on big monitors, can afford to use small browser fonts.
However, majority of our users are on laptops with multiple windows open. Some have bigger fonts to cope with vision issues and this becomes an extremely critical usability problem. It is not an exaggeration when I say our users are having difficult time accessing sheets because of this issue. Not only is adjusting the width every time a chore, it is actually very difficult to grab the handle.
- The best solution is if we can customize layout per workspace.
- If not, at least make both: Browse list/panel and Share To list/panel, collapsible and remember that preference.
- Worst case, at least make the Name column a priority and shrink the other columns, this should only make sense to anyone.
I really hope this can be addressed as soon as possible, thank you!
Dark Mode for Desktop App
I'm so pleased to see the release of the Desktop App. Such a key feature, so well done.
It would be great to have dark mode included in the app.
Include Images in cells through Forms
Hello,
I am trying to put together a simple order form for customers and I would like to include the images of the items that are available for customers to order. This way they know exactly what they are ordering. It is my understanding that this feature is not currently available. I would like for Smartsheets to consider this idea. For small business, it would make things so much easier for them to order products.
My Smartsheet Contacts - bulk deletion option
I decided to add all 4000 employees of my company to the Smartsheet Contacts.
I created 4 x 1000 csv files with names and emails.
As I work in Turkish company one of the csv files was wrongly decoded so 1000 employees in my contacts look like that:
and now I need to delete 1000 contacts one by one.... very very time consuming can you fix it?
