Where did the column headings go?

Jim Bob Green

I hope I'm just missing something with the new UI but when I go to create a report - select my columns, add my filters and then view the report, the data is returned nicely as expected but there are no column headings. I normally will select the columns I want and then rearrange them. However, there simply are no column heading showing except the primary - no way to grab them and move them around. Weird. I checked a few of my other sheets and found the same to now be true. There must be a way to turn column names/headings back on. We are somewhat crippled without the ability to see and manipulate column sequence. Please make me feel stupid and show me what simple thing I'm missing. Seriously... I want to feel stupid in this case since I'm dead in the water right now.😲

I just did the old tried and true approach of logging out and back into Smartsheet using a new browser session and shazam! The headings are back and now I see what all the hub-bub is about with the VERY large header row. Thanks for the input Nathan, Paul, and Melitta!

My reports are still showing column headings

Granted I hate how much wasted real estate there is now, I feel like the UI design team totally ignored the user experience here..

Thanks Nathan. Very weird. Here is an example of what I see now on a sheet

@Jim Bob Green You posted a screenshot of a sheet instead of a report. Granted there should still be the column headers though. Have you tried a different browser or refreshing your browser window?

@Jim Bob Green , we are missing column into in the top row for sheets and it has slightly different icons. Not all but enough.

There's a 'source level' note at the top left. I can see no way to get to that information.

And then we have one that still has its column info in the top row.

It's impacting some of our reports as well.

We logged a ticket: 04631096

Hoping they get it resolved soon.
