When my team is entering in projects, each engineer enters his own project. Currently we have to select our own name from a drop down, but having it be editable but already filled out in the form would help.

Hi @Bradley Jouty,
This can currently be achieved using URL query string to pre-fill values into a Form.
See: Use a URL query string to prefill different default values for the same form | Smartsheet Learning Center
it would take the form of something like:
https://SmartsheetURL/FormUniqueID?Column=Manager
Where:
Column = the Column Name or (over-ride Label used in the Form), with "%20%" in place of any spaces
Manager = your Project Engineer's name, with "%20%" for any spaces
For example:
https://SmartsheetURL/FormUniqueID?Project%20Engineer=Bradley%20Jouty
Hi @Bradley Jouty
I hope you're well and safe!
If you set the form, so the users have to be logged in to Smartsheet to see the form, you can collect the submitter with the system column, Created By, and then use a formula to translate that to what you need.
Make sense?
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe, and have a fantastic week!
Best,

Description: When users upload multiple photos in one action via the Smartsheet iOS mobile app, all files are assigned the same generic name and timestamp. This makes it difficult to identify individual photos and creates confusion in workflows that rely on accurate, unique file naming. Why This Matters: Industry Standard:…
Our consistent experience is that Smartsheet objects can take anywhere from 5-20 seconds to load. This feels extremely slow when you're actively facilitating a call and working between sheets, waiting for it to load. Other solutions in the industry have extremely fast, sub-5-second load times. I would request the product…
