Adding the ability to do conditional formatting by column, similar to how I would flag a column for duplicates in Microsoft Excel.
I have found workaround using Bing copilot, but I would like to have that feature out of the box

Any ideas are appreciated.

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…
