Hello,I am looking to remove a single cell from a grid and have the cells underneath move up but I am only given the option to remove rows which disrupts formulas I have in place. Is this feature of removing single cells available?
Hello Veronica,
There currently isn't a way to remove a single cell from a grid and have the other cells fill upward in its absence.
One thing that you might try is to drag-fill up your formula from the cells below, then deleting the information in the bottommost cell (as the cell above it should contain the formula after the drag-fill)
More on drag-fill here: https://help.smartsheet.com/articles/2476171-create-and-edit-formulas-in-smartsheet#dragfill
I'm trying to picture why deleting the row would not work, or probably better how the data is structured that this would be useful.
A cell is defined by the column it is in -- the type and that name mean something, and by the row -- there may be one or a few cells that define the row, a name or project number or a task brief description, but everything on the row is linked by that commonality.
By wanting to shift things in this way, the column where the cell in question is located must, by inference NOT be tied to the other things on any particular row, as the link between them will be broken when shifted.
Unless...
Unless you are trying to do something like a multiple row record. But then, only parts of the cells would need to be shifted, which would open up a new can of worms.
Just curious.

I have a Smartsheet automation setup to reminder the planning to complete their sections. It is setup to remind weekly until completed box is checked. They received 2 reminders and then the reminders stopped. Any idea what could be wrong? I can't tell that anything has changed in the sheet. Thanks Freda
I'm editing formulas in a Sheet Summary. However, I'm prevented from seeing the formula by an annoying "helpful" popup that obscures my view. I can't figure out how to get rid of the popup. Does anyone know?
I am trying to create a workflow and for some reason it gives me an error with the email I entered as the recipient for my Alert. It is an email that I know works, it is shared to the sheet, and the access to the sheet is unrestricted. I am perplexed at what the issue is. Anyone else get this and know what the issue is?
