Feature request - easier date cell deletion

It’s difficult to delete dates, especially in certain views:

  1. In table Detail view, it doesn’t appear possible to right click to delete, or to select the date cell without showing the calendar. It is possible to delete by opening the calendar, then hitting Escape key to hide it, observing that the cell is “highlighted” as the bottom line is blue, and then hitting Delete on keyboard. This is not obvious and cumbersome.
  2. In regular table view, if a cell is very small it is hard to select it without the calendar popup.

An obvious, fast way to delete both with the Del key or via an onscreen visual would be a big improvement in usability for date fields.

Thank you!

Dear @trader_umr

Obviously it’s done in Coda.
I recommend this Crowdcast if you are interested in more details

Hi Ben, is there still no update on this one? It’s really annoying that all that we use scheduling can’t have the option to remove the date from a date field. The only way arround it is to create a button that speficially replaces a cancel or clear button in the calendar view. It really is super annoying.
