Thank you Samuel, we are working to fix this.

@Paul Newcome It's only in the Browse view when in a workspace. You can't Favorite the workspace here. You have to back out to all the workspaces or go into a sheet and leverage the workspace panel

Jason DelValle, great new feature; however, Dashboards still do not seem recognize the form as a separate Smartsheet object. Do you know if this feature will be added at some point? I am trying to avoid hard coding a link for Control Center.

This is something we have been waiting on and really really need. Ideally one step beyond just dashboards recognising the form as an object but sheets as well. We need to link from a cell in a sheet to a form in the same way as we can link to other sheets, dashboards, or reports (and then when we copy the workspace all the links to items within the workspace to just work). 🙏

@jacob.alabi Thank you for leaving this feedback! This is actually an EAP feature change – you can still access search, however, it has been moved into the left rail alongside our other global navigation tools such as Browse, Home, and Favorites/Recents.
If you click the search icon in the left rail, you'll find that a floating search bar pops up, from which you can type in your search queries. Let me know if you have any additional questions/feedback about search!

@Grant E. Frazier Is there anyway to make it where the search bar can stay up all the time like it used to be? We use that feature constantly all day long to reference a specific row of data. The new search icon is creating unnecessary steps in our process and is causing a lot of frustration with my team. We utilize Smartsheet for equipment management. We are constantly using the search feature to refence a specific unit number in our primary column. These units could be on one of over a dozen sheets depending on a variety of factors. Having the search bar on the top left is extremely important for the constant quick reference of a unit. Any help that you can provide would be much appreciated.

Also, not near as important while I am providing some feedback on the updates. Having the forms show up now on the left navigation bar is causing a lot of confusion for our non-owner users. Most of them have no experience with creating forms or have the need to. They have a document where the links are saved for when they need to use one that we have created. Having them now show up clutter’s things up unnecessarily for the amount of use that they get. Be nice if that feature could be turned off.

Thank you for your time,

If I click to open the form using the new option in the tree, the default Smartsheet logo and color appear instead of the color and logo set for the workspace.
