Where are we on improving the use of Tables?

[monche]

Hey there, I’ve see a lot of great ideas on how to simply improve the use of tables in Anytype here: Simple tables improvements , but I don’t seem to find information on if that’s really in the works or not.

Could we get a status update please?

In my honest opinion, this is a pretty important feature, above many other more complex features that may be in the works. Tables are super important to gather thoughts and categorize them. Basic note taking and document creation features need to be present to become an attractive solution for most users.

Keep up the great work, cheers!

I’ve asked the product team on an update, and I’ll share it here after they reply:

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND Personally, it’s my must-have for simple tables: Merge table cells Selecting multiple cells at once (We can only select a column or row) Adding blocks to cells Adding paragraphs to table cell Copy prepared tables Autonumber table rows REAL WORLD USE CASES In Microsoft Word: [1] In Confluence: [image] Actually, In Anytype: [2022-12-07 18-45-06] In Confluence: [image] In Confluence: [image] Actually, in AnyType: [image] In Confluence: [2022-12-07…

With tag as widget, it’s one of the features I hope for most

Did you end up hearing back from them on that?

Not yet, I’ve checked with them again.

Unfortunately, we don’t currently have any plans to work on simple tables in the near future.

Thanks for the feedback. This is quite unfortunate…
Any reason why it is not considered at all? Is there a broader strategy of having users not to use tables at all since we should be making tables with blocks instead??
