Slow Reaction time
Hi. the reaction time is PAINFULLY SLOW. My sheet is only 120 rows by 35 colums. 21 of the columns have formulas in them. Other than that there is nothing. Not all colums are filled in. Is there a tweek or trick I can apply. If I move too fast it also freezes up. this is going to highly irritate co-workers. Help? LE
Outlook mailto: Capability
I'm using a smartsheet to store contact information. I'd like to be able to click on the email address and open a new email in Outlook. Nice to see the recent integration with Smartsheet and Outlook - why won't using the mailto: option for contact email addresses work on a smartsheet?
Highlight a column on the calendar (Gantt)
Currently I have the ability to manually add holidays to the Gantt view, which default as non-working days. I would like to be able to mark a calendar das a WORKING or NORMAL day, but still have it highlighted (in a color of my choice) on the Gantt view. Ideally, I could even add a description that would show if I move my…
No API access to Gantt Fields?
I see in the API documentation that the programatic access of row data in columns of type Predecessor, Duration, etc. is not supported. I'm doing what I've seen many others on this forum try to do; I'm merging several interdependent sheets into one "master" sheet. It need only be a snapshot of the others and needn't…
Reminders on Home Page
Is there any way to have reminders appear on the Home Page? I would like to see reminders for that day + upcoming. Thanks!
Send alerts to two people using the same column?

However sometimes the 'assigned to' needs to be more than one person therfore i have to amend my columns to be 'assigned to 1' and 'assigned to 2' to ensure both people get an email alert when the taks assigned to them is due.…
Profile Settings Mysteriously Changed?
How do I change my settings to stop overwriting cell content and default back to 'insert'? I used to be able to just type over something, but now the contents are overwritten. For example if I have "There is 90% in this." in a cell and I want to update it to 95%, it will now write over the '90% in this." completely instead…
Does Smartsheet have voting buttons for "voting up" ideas?
Looking for an interactive way to vote, like Tricider or Stickymoose, but within Smartsheet. Thanks!
Conditional Formatting on Parent Line
I created conditional formatting that allows me to color code based on % complete of child tasks, however this does not carry into the parent line as I have dependencies enabled. I would like to be able to visually show the progress of a project based on the average of the children status on the parent line.
Comments/note/document that attaches to the workbook?
I'm not sure how to describe this: Does Smartsheet offer any kind of a comments/note/document that attaches itself to the workbook, instead of a specific row? Here's why I ask: I would like a "How to use this sheet" document (standard work) that explains what the sheet is, best practices for how the team should use it, a…
