Symbol Explanation

Is there a way to hover over Symbol fields so an explanation to the color codes can be provided in a Smartsheet and Dashboard?

Hi @PMOGal

I hope you're well and safe!

You can hover over it in the Column Selection menu. (see below)

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

Best,

Hi Andre,

Is there some place I need to go to define? I am seeing this:

I'd like for Red=Serious, Yellow=Watch, Green=Excellent, Blue=Complete. Thank you.

@PMOGal

Ok. You'd need to add your own description somewhere to have it mean something else.

Make sense?

Hi Andree. I have saved an attachment to define my color codes. Is there a way I can do that in Smartsheet, so that if someone hovers over the symbol it displays what I want the symbols to mean? Thank, you.

Happy to help!

Unfortunately, it's not possible now, but it's an excellent idea!

I submitted an enhancement. For now, I have to county my Symbols and do a sheet summary. And, then create a report.
