Add Formatting to Column Headers

Heather_Goetz_DAL

I would like the ability to add color to column headers or to rotate the text 90 degrees to minimize how long a sheet gets with multiple columns which would help visually on a dashboard.

Visual from my dashboard currently where the column header can only display in grey:

Boldface type would help column headings stand out better. It would be nice to have that as an option, if and when I wanted to use it.

Please consider the ability to change the color of the header text (and maybe font size) so that its easier to differentiate groups of columns when looking at a very large sheet.

Thanks

Yes, I would love all these things too. Plus the ability to change the font size of the column headers.

all the above plus the height of the header row. (I think its all one idea that the header rows should have basic formatting)

Hope C.

I would also like the option to have multiple headers. Such as this screenshot from Excel. Perhaps this could happen on Calendar App. But there would be other opportunities to use multi-headers to subcategorize sections of a sheet. Thank you for the consideration!

Rotating column headers is a common functionality used in spreadsheets and would be very helpful, if available in Smartsheet.

Basic column management (font, color, rotation) is sorely needed. Please consider!

Any capabilities that can be added to formatting the header row would be an excellent upgrade!

Being able to color code the column headers would be a huge time saver for people who have to edit sheets often

The ability to format (color, font size, rotate) the column headers would be very helpful. Currently, in my opinion, the column headers get washed out on the sheets, and being able to format them would solve that.

It is a real challenge to make beautiful dashboards when I cannot center the column headers.

Anyone found a workaround?

Share screenshots if possible???

Formatting in general for column headings would be terrific! Bold, colors, text orientation, etc..

There are multiple requests for this among several posts, with many votes. Hopefully it will get some attention!!

Ray Lindstrom

I'm voting everywhere I can for this because it's very important to me.

I don't understand why it is taking so long to add this feature to Smartsheet. It should have been a basic feature from the start as it affects everything from plans to reports to dashboards.
