ENGAGE 2023 is approaching, so we're giving you four reasons to join us in Seattle this September 19 - 21! Here's the second reason: The speakers.
Not only will you hear from leaders from ADP, Goodwill® Industries, and Sodexo during the keynote on Sept. 19, but you’ll also hear from power users in the 65+ breakout sessions. Here are just three of the many Smartsheet gurus telling their insights at ENGAGE 2023:
- Melanie Corbin, Manager, HIT Projects at MedPOINT Management
- Brian Richardson, PMO Tools and Resource Manager at Iron Mountain
- Sara-Beth Zlatich, QC Project Specialist at Seagen

For the comments: Is there a speaker from a past ENGAGE that left a great impression on you?

Re: Please enhance Column Contacts and Form Contacts by allowing Groups to be used!
It would be great to have the ability to assign a group to a contact list. I have a few lists with departments that are constantly evolving, having to revisit any sheet that may have had that department members in a contact list is a challenge. If we were able to simply update a group, and have that track to any and all contact lists across all sheets, it would be a more consistent user experience.

Donut Chart metric display
It would be great if inside the circle or semi-circle of a Donut-style Chart widget in a Dashboard, we could display a key metric such as the total amount of the values/amounts shown in each segment. like this...
This is supposedly what a donut chart is designed to do. It could be achieved by adding an option to either the 'Chart & Series' or the 'Legend' section of the chart widget editor. Or, if we were able to overlap widgets (using a transparent background), we could use a Metric widget for highlighting a key value and its label.

Re: August Question of the Month 💭 Join the conversation and receive a badge!
We have only recently transitioned, transitioning, to Smartsheet and I have switched roles to devote the majority of my time for project management. I have spent many hours reviewing the training videos and walking through the Self-paced learning that is available. I need to spend more time poking around the community pages. There is a wealth of insights to learn from everyone here.

Re: Dashboard Charts - Secondary Axis, additional data points, target line
I would love to see trendline functionality on dashboard charts, similar to what is available in Microsoft Excel (see image below, where a linear trendline is called out with an arrow). Trendlines are helpful additions to charts because they can help you to:
Identify trends: A trendline can help you to identify the overall direction of a data series. This can be helpful for spotting trends that may not be immediately obvious from looking at the data points themselves.
Make predictions: Once you have identified a trend, you can use the trendline to make predictions about future values. This can be helpful for planning and decision-making.
Compare different data series: Trendlines can also be used to compare different data series. This can be helpful for identifying which data series is growing or shrinking at the fastest rate.
Increase Size Limit on File Upload in Form
Currently, the size limit for anyone to upload files to a Form is set at 30MB.
I think this should be based on the Sheet Owner's account type - if the sheet owner can upload a file up to 250MB, anyone should be able to upload up to 250MB to that sheet via a form.
Thank you! And please upvote this idea if you agree!

Re: Calling all Music Fans - Let's make a playlist for ENGAGE 🎧️✨
So many songs to choose from but "Eye of the Tiger" is consistently among the top of the list for me! Can wait to see what others share.

Re: Workspace Shared to panel
Please I am from Sodexo Brasil and we use a lot the Smartsheet, but the space to acess the sheets and files is so little because we have the sidebar of the workspace (showing who is shared) occupying a lot of space from the screen.
Please, we need a feature to hide this sidebar, the users don't need to see this sidebar all the time, only when needed to share with someone, in our case only the admin users use this sidebar and a few times for month.

Re: Workspace Shared to panel
Please provide the ability to show/hide the Workspace Shared To panel so I don't have to shrink the Browse panel every time I go to a workspace.
Thanks,

Conditional formatting OR option
Please create an OR option for conditional formatting. I have a list of 50 numbers, and I need to highlight if any of them exist in a specific cell. Without an OR option, I have to make 50 rules to accomplish this. Frustrating!
