Search

To search for a particular term in a view, click the magnifying glass in the top right menu bar or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+F on a PC or Cmd+F on Mac. Click the up and down arrows (or hit the Enter key) to see each instance of a search term.

Filtering records

Clicking the “Add filter” button and entering your criteria. Green highlighting around a column indicates that a column is being used to filter a view.

Here’s an example showing how to modify a view to show climbing gear that you need to buy.  To do that, we’d filter to show records where the “Owned” field is not checked.

 

 

Sorting records

Automatically sort the records in a table by clicking the “Apply sort” button. Next, choose the column to sort, select ascending or descending order (A → Z or Z → A), and then click “Apply.”  In this case, let’s sort by price to see the most expensive gear that we need to buy for the climb.

Expanding records
Records can be expanded to a full-page detail view that lets you see all of the information in all of the fields for a single record.

How to expand a record
While in a grid view, you can expand a record (row) by clicking the circular expand button to the left of the record, which appears when you mouse over a record. You can also expand a record by pressing the space bar when a cell is selected.

Inside an expanded record
An expanded record shows all of the information in all of the fields for a particular record.

If you’re looking at an expanded record while in a view with hidden fields, those fields will be hidden at the bottom of the record by default, but you can expand them to take a closer look by clicking on the X hidden fields dropdown.

From within an expanded record, you can switch to the next record or previous record either by using the up and down arrows at the top of the expanded record, or use the keyboard shortcuts CtrlShift< and CtrlShift>.

 

 

Expanding cells
You can expand an individual cell to show all its contents in greater detail.

When any cell is selected, use the keyboard shortcut ShiftSpace to open up a larger version of that cell. Certain field types (like attachment, linked record, and long text) will also automatically show a button that can be clicked to expand the cell.

From within an expanded cell, you can use the arrow keys to navigate through expanded versions of all the cells in the table. This can make reading through a column of long text fields a whole lot easier.
