Table views

A table view shows the records in one table. The same table can have more than one view, each a different shape, and you switch between them with the tabs along the top. A view is a lens, never a copy: every layout reads the same records, so a change in one shows up in all of them.

The five layouts

• List — a tall scroll of records, each with a title, a subtitle, and a trailing value. The everyday default, and what most apps lean on.
• Table — a classic spreadsheet grid. Best when you want to scan many columns side by side.
• Kanban — cards sorted into columns. You pick the column to group by, then drag a card from one column to the next to change its value.
• Calendar — records placed on a month grid by a date column you choose. Best for anything with a due date or an event date.
• Gallery — an image-first grid. Best for tables built around a primary photo, like products or recipes.

What kanban and calendar need

Two layouts bind to a specific column, and you choose which:

• Kanban groups by one column. A Select column works best (think Status: To do / Doing / Done), because its options become the board’s columns.
• Calendar plots records by one date or date & time column.

If a table has no column of the right kind, add one first (see Column types), then point the view at it.

Switching and removing

One table, many views. Add another from Adding a view, and move between them with the tabs. Removing a view only changes how records are shown; it never deletes the records themselves.
