please make sure you dont have sharing via link enabled on your doc - and if it is not shared there - please get in touch with us via in product chat - we would definitely want to see what is going on there.

Hey Krunal ! this was SO Handy . Thanks a lot for this insight. Game Changer

Any idea on how to do the same with the Open Big Cell Note Function with a button ?

The normal function would be this

OpenWindow(Concatenate( Url(thisRow),"&columnId=c-ZK6pMUygtu&modal=true"))

!

Like this? Ever wanted to open a specific column in "BIG cell editing mode"?

Hi @Krunal_Sheth do I need to add for each layout a new view? As I understand, and what happend now with my doc, that I reached the size limit as I have like 10 different layout I want to use. Any thoughts on this? Thank you very much

Hi @thomas_raizedai,

If you’re looking to have a different display show for each scenario, then you’ll need to have a view with each display to point to. This workaround is using the view as the identifier to find the display. It would be nice to be able to set a custom layout without the need for the view, but we don’t have that at the moment.

Hi!

Any idea on how I can create a button that would open a link from an adjacent lookup table?

Here’s my setup :

• Test projects
• Test tasks with lookup on test projects

Here’s my goal

• add a button in test tasks that would open the related project

thanks in advance for your response !

Activate(thisRow.project)

This should probably be added as an option in the button dialogue’s “Action” menu.

Thanks @BenLee for your feedback, even during weekend, much appreciated
Question: what then counts to a doc size, having various views from a table? e.g. each column I display? I have a table with around 1000 rows, but 30 views of it which the API tells me 131% size

Update: there is now an even easier way to do this. Just use the Open Row button action!

super useful, in particular now that is has the layout choice option.
Thank you Coda!

Sorry, if I am being thick, but haven’t we had OpenRow() for a while now ? what changed?

Despite its name, the viewOrLayout parameter only accepts views - thus we still need to create views for no reasons other than to have some specific layout we need opened by a specific button.
Why can’t this parameter alternatively take the name of a layout to open?

[joost_mineur]

Yes, I was confused too. I thought this was an update, but the only change is the interface in the button menu.

Sorry for the confusion, not a new feature! I just wanted to close the loop on this old thread.
