Really hope that they give Layout more love - it's a powerful tool, but I find it really difficult to make layouts that look nice because most of the time the way it aligns everything ends up looking ugly and there's not always that much you can do about it. Appreciate you giving a look into how you organize the look of your layouts. Also hoping they deign to allow us to remove the record expand option as well. Happy with their recent improvements to hiding the "add row" buttons, now this next please!
100% agree. To call it "Layout" and make it so difficult to layout is kinda silly. Also there should be a place where we have an overview of all the layouts and what they are assigned to.
I was about ready to give up and go back to Notion, but this video changed everything! I was searching for a way to use collapsible headings in a detail view without copying every view stored on a canvas template for every row. This is a BETTER solution than what I was looking for! Thank you SO much.
That’s cool, thank you! I took hours trying to do this until I achieved it. The result is very similar, but one thing I want to test is to avoid having to make a table and set a role, but instead just checking if the email contains our domain. If not, the client opens a different view. I need to test it, but I could reduce one unnecessary step.
@@thecodaguy hey, that's great, many thanks! Nice touch with ContainsText(). I wasn't aware of this one! It should simplify some other formulas using Contains() and .ToText() inside.
Some really nice tricks! I've usually created separate pages for each role with separate views. This might change my workflow a bit, thank you. Also, I hope we get a "hide expand row"-option, so we don't need to do the little formula view trick at the end. And also natively being able to create user groups, which is so odd that it's not a feature yet.
Cool trick! I haven't explored much of Coda's formula and databases yet, but question though. Is there a way that the submitter cannot access or see the rest of DB columns that are only meant for designers? I was thinking that submitters can just approve any task (row) by simply making the approve button visible. Thanks in advance!
Do you have a video on CODA security? The specific question I am looking for is does CODA encrypt or secure it's data and media? Notion, currently using, is great for a startup team but is essentially. In larger companies, I use confluence (primarily for cultural fit with dev team also no jira and confluence). I have not found the answer about content security. Thank you.
Notes: 0:00 Clever idea. Can make a button that open views conditionally based on the current user. 9:22 Can reference values on User() function, such as User().Email - User().Photo - User().Name 11:25 Absolutely hilarious. But effective. If a person does the shortcut to open a row, just make the table's default layout a single column. 11:57 _"If I just cheat..."_ YOU MEAN open it normally? RIGHT? 😂 12:08 Omg look!! *T-rex hands!!* (I can't unsee it now lmao)

Total Genius! Can't wait to be able to Master Coda at this level and enter the Coda World Championships :-) Another excellent tutorial Video!

Good idea! Just do a if(user().email.containsText(myDomain), authorizedAction, notAuthorizedaction)
Should work!

great post Scott 🎉
You could also display the Button-Column in the Default-View, so it's more convenient if you accidentally click on the Expand button.
Is there a way to open different views from the calendar view instead of table view?

super useful
Great video, but this is frankly way to complicated. It should be made much easier by coda.
