I need for a text box to appear only if "OTHER" is chosen from the dropdown menu. Can a field (text box) be hidden unless OTHER is chosen?
Hi Kitty,
Unfortunately, no it can't be hidden but depending on your need it could be shown in another color or similar if other is chosen.
Would that help/work?
Have a fantastic week!

That will work! Thank you!
Andree, I'm following this thread because I'm trying to do something similar. My drop down list criteria in my form are the following "Acceptable" "Unacceptable" and "N/A". I want to have some sort of rule (?) that if "unacceptable" is selected, the user must add a comment. I'm not sure if this solution is the same for me as the original poster. Can you advise?
Excellent!
Happy to help!
Let me know if you need any help!

Hi Hilary,
It's a little different when it's in I form because currently, Smartsheet doesn't have any functionality for conditional logic in forms.
There are a few workarounds.
Would any of those options work?
Andrée
Thanks! It seems that the third option would be best. So would this require me to add an additional text field for every question in the form? Currently there are quite a few questions and it is already a long form to scroll through.
I'd add the text in the bottom of the form and maybe add a checkbox or dropdown list where they can select that they've added the comment or that no comment is needed or similar.
Would that work?
Thanks for your help!
You're welcome!
I'm always happy to help!
Is there a way to revert to the old dashboard look and feel. The new dashboards do not look good at all. There is no way of knowing if there are additional items in the widgets until you scroll over one to learn there is more to it since the vertical bar doesn't show. We have hundreds of dashboards and they will all need…
When i try to send or print the timeline view instead of showing the progression bars like they do on the screen it only send the data entered and not a graph type view to print. Is there a way to do this. I am using a mac platform if that helps.
Please assist me, I am having trouble with my smartsheet, I am on a paid pro plan, with 5 paid members, but neither I or my members can access or edit sheets. When I try to share the sheet, it says that I only have viewer access. My team members cant access the sheets at all. I renewed my subscription recently and it seems…
