Problem with Gant Chart - Gear Icon not consistently shared

Hello All,

The gear icon that I see in my gant chart schedule, is not showing up for certain people that I share the sheet with. This is a problem as our project managers need to be able to change the time line displays. Some people can see it, some people cant. I can not find the setting to always allow the gear icon to be usable to all parties I share the sheet with. I have double checked, and all parties are licensed users, and system users, under my account.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks Jef

Hi Jeff,

This indicates that they are shared with Editor- or Viewer-level sharing permissions. Bump their permissions up to Admin and they'll be able to access the project settings through that gear icon that you're seeing.

You can give them Admin permissions by clicking on the Sharing tab at the bottom of the sheet, expanding the Collaborators section in the Sharing form, and selecting Admin from the dropdown field next to their name/email

Phone number validation won't allow all zeros
Hi- We have been using a SmartSheet Form for a while, and users have been able to enter 000-000-0000 if they don't know a person's phone number. However, over the past few days, it appears that the phone number validation field will not allow all zeros any more. Is there a way that I can change this? We would like the…
