I am having a dramatic loss in picture quality when posting to the dashboard. Is anyone getting this as well? I even added an outline to the words and you can hardly tell in the dashboard.
It looks like your image is really small. 358px x 154px. I recommend enlarging it (notice it's pixelated on this discussion as well).
I've attached a sample that's larger.
I simply took a snip of both for this post. The original is much larger.
I am having the same problem.
I played around with this a bit more and found that when an image is uploaded that is larger than the intended size, SmartSheet doesn't do a good job of compressing the image into a manageable size. It was working fine on my laptop, but now on my desktop monitor, I experience the same issue of the image becoming grainy at smaller sizes.
I did try different image sizes, from 200px width through 1100px width, and none of them resulted in decent quality once reduced to a "button" size. And, of course, there's not any other good way of linking with text that looks nice.
As a workaround to this, you can use the Metric Widget to link to a cell that contains the text you want, and then make the interaction a hyperlink to the form you want to use. You can adjust the text font and color, and size up to 36.
Side-by-side comparison below (ignore the fact that it's different text).
That means I have to have a dedicated sheet just for that purpose. I do not like the idea of doing it that way. Also I can't use the fonts i want because they aren't supported by smartsheet.
I appreciate the help though
This workaround is exactly what I needed! Thank you!
I'm making a navigation center like the one featured at Engage 18, "Best in Class Project Management" presentation.
Has anyone found a workaround for sharing Smartsheet reports externally without giving access to internal data? I currently have to download the data and transfer it onto excel to create a pivot table for our client and I want to find an easier way to do so. I also already create a dashboard for our client, but I wanted…
Hello team! Hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season. I am trying to set up an automation that will send an email reminder one time when Next Update Date = 60 days, then another automation at 30d, etc. The key is I only want it to send the reminder one time when Next Update threshold is reached. Is this possible?…
I have an automation setup to escalate to managers when a step goes beyond 2 days. I have that titled as Escalation for Purchasing, Escalation for Planning, etc. In my trial run, 3 out of 6 showed up as Reminder: New part number request log ( this is the name of the sheet) The only thing we could see was that the ones that…
