Attachments update?

Previously in sheets when clicking on the paper clip attachment icon in a row, a popup would appear. Now the attachment panel appears requiring several clicks to download an attachment. Was this a software update or did a setting get changed on my sheet?

I am not sure what you mean by "several clicks". I am able to download from the sidebar in a single click.

This is a system update though, not a setting.

See attached for example. How are you able to download in a single click?

Once I open the sidebar (which takes one click the same as accessing the old popup), I simply click on the "image" of the attachment (circled in red), and it automatically downloads.

Thanks for the quick response. I was able to use the expanded menu option to get what I needed to download in mass.

The new system isnt as easy as the old to "upload" a file

click on the paper clip, then click on attach files to sheet, then click on upload from computer.

after you upload you manually need to close the side bar.

the other drawback is only a portion of the file name is visible on the side bar.

im not sure how the new sidebar is helpful?

Isn't that the same way it worked before? Click the paperclip, upload from computer, then close the popup? At least that's how it was working for me...

Showing "stacked" data / Statuses of items by swimlane
I have multiple items that each have their own statuses and that roll up to "workstreams" or swimlanes. On the dashboard, I would like to show the progress of the items by swimlane without breaking it out into separate widgets for each. This would ideally be a stacked bar where each bar represented the Items and was broken…
