In my plant db I want to show a period for flowering, and sowing, and havesting. Currently i have invented a table of months and I use this as a multi select list, which works fine but would would be cool if if I could present as a small horizontal grid of 12 cells with single letter headings (J, F, M, A…) and solid fill in each month in the selected list.
So, this could be a new field type of range, which might be useful. But in my case I think it would be more useful to have a presentation option where I could, in this case, choose to display as a ‘horizontal grid’ using column ‘Month Letter’ as heading and ‘solid fill’ (or tick) as the fill type. One could also take fill type one step further by allowing list items to have multiple states e.g. a tri-state option of, ‘yes’, ‘no’, ‘perhaps’ each having a presentation glyph or icon like this:

I don’t think this is possible right now. Maybe a feature suggestion?

I don’t think there’s a native field type for this yet. The workaround I’d try is a helper Months table plus 12 formula/checkbox columns on the plant row, then use conditional formatting so the Jan-Dec strip reads like a mini season chart instead of raw booleans.
If you want it in one cell, a Canvas column that maps the selected months into 12 glyphs is probably the closest version of the horizontal grid you described. I’d still post it in Product Feedback too, because a real range/season field would be cleaner than building it by hand.
