Preserving Indents when running a Smartsheet Report
Hi,
I currenlty have a smartsheet with a bunch of tasks broken out into different sections. I separate the sections with different field values but to help with readability- I also do indenting in the task description field- this allows for the summary tasks to show as bolded.
My issue is when I run a report to show a portion or all of that smartsheet- the formatting I had, is lost in the report.
Is there any way to preserve the formatting I had in there in the original smartsheet when I use it as part of a report?
Thanks.

I haven't found a way to do that. It would be helpful to keep the formatting.

Hi Bob -- Currently we don't have a way to show hierarchy or parent information within Reports. This is on our enhancement list and I'll add your vote for it!
A workaround would be to add a new column and use the steps my colleague Mike describes here to create a "breadcrumb" trail to track hierarchy in your Report. Hope this helps!

Kennedy,
Your link did not work for me.

I am having the same issue, which defeats the purpose of the report if I need to reformat it every time. The link provided for a work around does not work.
