Scroll Bars for Tables

Thank you @nathan - I appreciate your consideration of scroll bars for tables in a future release.

Your suggestion regarding cards is interesting as an interim workaround. There are indeed some cases where cards may be preferable as a display format. I gave it a try and have observed the following:

(1) For large tables with tens of thousands of entries (as you saw in my sample data), the table may be slow to update but does work. If I create a card view however, the card view does not work at all, no matter how long I wait . When I try to display a large card view, the document freezes and I need to close the tab and reload the whole document.

(2) Would it be possible for a card to display a live hyperlink which opens a new tab when selected? This is possible with a table view, but with cards a hyperlink always opens the card, where the URL must then be selected again.

(3) There is no equivalent of Wrap Text for a card, so long titles are cut off and not always readable

(4) For both cards and tables, would it be possible for the reader to adjust the height of the View similar to the way wndows can be enlarged or shrunken on a Windows or MacOS app?

Thanks!
