Is there a way to add a text box control? I would like to be able to reference a block of text as a variable in formulas.
I couldnāt do that either, but what you can do instead is create a table and disable the title and take off grid lines, it isnāt exacly a textbox, but should do the trick
Hey @Jeffery_Zhang, @Pedro_Miguel_Rocha_Silveira and others ā weāre working now on a new textbox control!
Weād love your feedback on some of the final details if youāre willing to try it out.
Please fill out this form if youāre interested, and weāll follow up. Thanks!
I have a table where Iām saving download links - for certain download links, the name of the file being downloaded is a ācleanā / non-garbled name and I split it off using a formula based on a drop down value (site name)
However for some links (I select āOtherā) in the drop down, and I need to manually type in the file name - the way Coda works, I canāt type the file name in the same field the formula is writing to, I have to add an additional text field for those site downloads.
I wish the textbox OR Coda would implement a way where though a flag you can get the formula to āreleaseā its hold on the field where it could be typed into normally!
In my use case, when Iām downloading from Site A, the file name field is automatically populated, where as for Site B, the formulaās grip on the file name field is released and I can type in the name manually.
Maybe a specially kind of IF statement like IIF that causes the function to disconnect its output, or some-such
