Hi!

It would be nice if when moving columns in the Glide Data Editor the columns themselves continue to move as I manually move a column over. Pretty much like what’s found in Google Sheets. Right now I have to stop, use the bottom slider to move the columns, repeating this until I get the column where I want it.

oh, yes please…  
And try doing this with a trackpad or a dodgy mouse 😱

One thing I do is resize many of my columns to the minimum size, especially those I don’t often refer to.  
Like this…

Makes it a little bit easier…
