Sights - Not enough functionality setup is weak
I have gone through sights. You are on the road to making a good 'dashboard' tool, but clearly not there yet for the application i need.

Reports - improve options

Sight report - collapse and expand lists on the screen
Hi all, We're using Smartsheet sights for our weekly confcall on program progress in full screen "presentation mode", which is really doing great for us. One of the widgets in the sight is showing actual gantt charts per project and it gives us the right level of detail for the call. As the project list is growing rapidly,…
Enhancement Request - "Edit Row" form to utilize field comments from Web Form
One of the things I like about SmartSheet forms is the ability to essentially create a work instruction from the Web Form itself. You can comment the definition of fields, enumerated lists, etc. making the form fairly self defining without the need of outside Work Instruction type of documentation. It would be nice if…
