New Features in Smartsheet

Shaine Greenwood

Hello Community,

We recently updated Smartsheet to include some new helpful features. This update is centered around formatting improvements, and a way to give ownership of your sheets to other licensed Smartsheet users.

Here's a breakdown of the updates:

• You can now double-click on the Format Painter button to "lock" it and apply formatting to multiple cells. Click again on the button to release the format. Details on the Format Painter button are available in this help article: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/518246-formatting-options
• When creating Conditional Formatting rules, you can now select multiple columns. If you have any rules that apply the same formatting to a single column, they'll be consolidated into a single rule. More info on this is available in the help article: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/516359-conditional-formatting
• Although other people can still request ownership of a particular sheet, you can now give ownership of a sheet to other licensed users with the steps in this help article: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/520103-changing-the-sheet-owner

Digging the improved rule functionality.  Thanks guys.

Any chance that you found a way to reduce the heavy burden on sheet response time that formatting (conditional included) causes?
