I'd like to allow people to view my sheet and comment on tasks without being able to make any other edits. It would be great to have more specific control of user permissions to make this possible. Maybe somebody has a creative way to do this with sharing/publishing?
Formula to Average Child Progress Bars
I'm hoping to find a formula I can use to automatically fill out the parent row's progress bar based on the child rows. The result would look something like this, just not sure if this is possible. * * Section 1 is 50% because: Sub-task 1 + Sub-task 2 + Subtask 3 = 150 then / 3 tasks = 50% progress bar Section 2 is 75%…
