When adding statuses in a drop-down menu, having the option to assign a color so that when you create pie charts all the status legends are the same. Or having some feature to make sure your legends were consistent.

@hbaksys I agree this would be very helpful and save a lot of time! I have the same standardized colors for status and having to update them each time is a detail I'd like to not have to think about.
In our dashboards we use the same tracker (in the same Workspace) to generate various reports/widgets for different levels of status updates.
For example, 1 widget may report # of each type of status (4 New, 6 In Progress, 2 Ready for Review, 10 Closed - etc). Another widget needs to report % of each status (18% New, 27% In Progress, 10% Ready for Review, 45% Closed - etc).
Even though the dashboard and trackers are created from templates AND both widgets pull from the same tracker, the issue is both widgets do not default to the same color legend for "New", In Progress", "Closed" etc. "New" in the # widget may default to blue but "New" in the % widget may default to green once the templates are used to create a new workspace.
It would be very time saving if there was a a way to "lock" a specific color in a dashboard legend to a specific dropdown response when multiple widgets are pulling from the same column from the source document. Currently this is a manual process of aligning all widgets to the same colors for each status option.
Please consider adding this feature! At present, it's difficult to maintain color consistency for categories across multiple pie charts and dashboards (e.g. Marketing is Red, Purchasing is Green) which gets hairy if there's 6+ categories to recolor.
It would be extremely beneficial to have the ability to manually assign colors to individual projects within the Timeline View. Currently, project colors are automatically determined by the Dashboard Theme, which limits flexibility and makes it challenging to visually differentiate projects in a meaningful way. Allowing…
It would be useful if users who clicked a Dynamic View link (that they were not previously added to) could "request access" to the Dynamic View, and provide a reason, so that the admin can easily grant that access. The use case for me would be to avoid having to pre-populate and then maintain a user group of viewers, but…
As the smartsheet admin for Europe, it would be extremely helpful to be able to view all Automations / recurring emailed reports in one place as opposed to sheet level. It's almost impossible to ensure everything is working correctly / delete recurring emailed reports without this.
