Dynamic View - Visibility of Attachments & Comments

Laura Fish

Dynamic View does not seem as user-friendly as in regular view/ sheet mode.

Dynamic view - The attachments including photos are not viewable straight away as a small preview as they are in sheet view. It seems you need to download the image every time you need to view it. It also means when you view multiple photos, you will have multiple windows open, then you will need to close them one by one.

When a new comment is added to a row, there is no way to see from the main view where the comment is added, making it difficult to locate. There is no comment icon visible on a line for those with comments (same with attachments)

The user doesn't have visibility of which line has comments or attachments until they click.

Can we get the functionality to PREVIEW and to have the icons for comments/ attachments showing in Dynamic View?

I have a similar issue. My users are asking me how can they see that they are new comments at a glance. I'm having trouble coming up with a solution. Seeing the comments and attachments in a similar way as on the reports and sheets would be great.

We have the same issue, Attachments are saved every time instead of option for a preview.

This would be great as it's not worth it to click on every row just to see if there's a response to a comment or comment in general

Already have requested drag and drop on dynamic views. Would like to add the request for

• adding multiple attachments by clicking shift and or ctrl vs. individually adding
• Having the attachments be viewable as they are in the grid / report view vs having to download and open them

This is highly demanded in my company. Dynamic view only allows us to download files. Please make preview available.

Same here, my External Partners are becoming increasingly frustrated with this. With the additional cost associated we did not realize we would lose a lot of the enhanced functionality that came with working directly out of the underlying smartsheet, here is feedback directly from our partner:

"The ability to interact with attached documents as Smartsheets allows is a vital function that is missing. We no longer have the ability to:- preview pdf's- change the name of documents- upload a new version- delete documents. With out these abilities any interaction with a submission becomes cumbersome and a burden. We also need the ability to know when something has been updated without having to go into each item at a glance, some indicator of some sort (where is the previous icon?) this is a huge time waste."
