hi! i want to be able to set the maximum height of a table view on a page, and be able to scroll down to see any other rows-- is that possible?
for more context, i’m trying to create a daily dashboard page which has a view of my to do list embedded in it. ideally what i want is a scrollable frame i can drag and drop around the page, but i am making do with the columns. however, my table is however long as the number of rows shown in it. i want to limit the height to a fixed height and have be able to scroll down to see any other rows. this way i can make a consistent layout for my page.
If I understand you correctly, you want something like a “Show More” button that you can click and that will then show you 30 more rows of this table?
This isn’t currently possible in Coda, but you can create a view of your main table and filter out unwanted rows. For example, you could only filter the first 50 rows of this table.
not exactly, i just want a window that scrolls when necessary. Like the text box i’m writing in… if i wrote a very long comment ,it would not grow to consume the entire height of my window, it would just scroll within its predefined size. I would like to be able to define the height of the view independently of hte number of rows, like i can define the width independent of the number of columns.
But I agree it doesn’t seem like this is a feature. It should be though. Coda seems very indifferent to the idea that users might want to lay their pages out in a visual way, which seems like an oversight.
I hope you have a great friday.
