Enhancement Requests: Freeze Row, Merge Cells

Sameer Karkhanis

Understand that Smartsheet functionality is heavily built around columns, however if Smartsheet has to standout with the likes of Excel and Google Docs then features like Freeze Row, Merge Cells needs to be supported. For example, if the user wants to simply add a title that spans across 4 columns that represent months in a fiscal quarter then there is no way this can be done in Smartsheets. This is the simplest use case but in practical usage there are some many use cases than limit the usage of the tool and so adoption becomes a challenge.

100% Yes to this. I haven't yet seen an explanation as to why Smartsheets cannot add a 'merge cells' functionality. People have been asking for it for many years, don't understand why it can't be added.
