Please allow table rows to be pages (like Notion). This is the single feature keeping me from moving over to Coda.

Hi @Sarah_Arminta , can’t canvas formulas be the feature you were looking for? I mean, i don’t know how pages in Notion works, but as now you can “extract” data from any row you desire and you have pretty much a lot of flexibility with what to do with it… If you just need some data you can use canv…

I’m new, so not super familiar with all of the terms. I’m assuming canvas formulas means inline formulas? That’s a really amazing feature, but not what I’m looking for here. An example of what I want to replicate. I have a Knowledge Topics table and a Notes table. Each note is related to one or mor…

Hi @Sarah_Arminta , you were right, [image] Sarah_Arminta: canvas formulas means inline formulas I imagined that those was a little bit to “minimal” for your use, but let me tell you that with a bit of creativity in generating their content you can create some interesting dynamic layout …

HI Mario, thanks for the response. So if I’m understanding correctly you’re suggesting that I put my page content into cells as text/etc instead? That sounds nice, and could work for some of my simpler notes, but for example, I have a note on Japanese verbs that is 5,910 words long and includes ma…

related: [image] Manipulate Pages/Sections like Rows I want to be able to manipulate pages as though they are rows Long story short: Let me make a column type called Page that is built out of the contents of a single Row, let me edit it with the flexibility of…

I agree that this is one feature that Coda really needs. To give a couple more examples where this would be useful: Example 1: I have a table for meetings, where each row represents a meeting and contains the meeting title, date, attendees and notes. I take meeting notes by opening up the layout vi…

Hi @Sarah_Arminta , yes, you got it right! I’ve prepared an example of the concept i was presenting you, you can find it here: If i was you that’s how i would organize content and this is how i suggest you to do this things in coda, but as always there could be better ways (but i’ve been a coda u…

Thanks for the reply and the example. I will have to sit back and see how I can reimagine my content in more of a data-centric way :slight_smile:

No worries! @Sarah_Arminta I’ve also updated it to show an alternative route and some guide/instructions, keep in mind that this is just a super basic setup, but you could improve it a lot with little effort! If after all you decide to give coda a try, update me here and i’ll explain some more adv…

I need exactly what @Sarah_Arminta and @Johnny_Hunter1 are requesting – without clever work-arounds. I think it’s a pretty big oversight that there wasn’t at least some way to limit the height of a row due to a text column with lots of data (such as a note on Japanese verbs or notes from a long mee…
