How to convert to @row functionality
I cannot seem to reference the next row down if I convert row numbers to @row
from this:
=IF(COUNT(ANCESTORS([Task Name]3)) < COUNT(ANCESTORS([Task Name]4)), COUNT(ANCESTORS([Task Name]3)))
to this:
=IF(COUNT(ANCESTORS([Task Name]@row)) < COUNT(ANCESTORS([Task Name]4)), COUNT(ANCESTORS([Task Name]@row))) what do I do for [Task Name]4?

@row only works to reference the column in the same row as the formula. If you want to reference a cell in a different column you will have to use a numerical reference. You could technically add a helper column to adjust your values in the non @row column by whatever number of rows before/after, then reference this new column with @row

I'll work on that. Me and helper columns are old friends.
