The table horizontal scroll bar is too thin. When we need to scroll left and right using mouse to access hidden columns, it is not easy to position the mouse cursor precisely, and often blank records are accidentally added and then requires manual deletion.

Actually, the Glide table is more a database than a spreadsheet so the data editor doesn’t need to look like the spreadsheet (except when we need to view the data). The column definitions can be shown vertically for faster access and editing.

To scroll left of right I find it MUCH easier to just hold the shift key and use the scroll wheel on my mouse. Give that a try.

What’s this mouse nonsense?  
All it takes is a two finger swipe on the track pad 😝😂

> Hey guys! wave Like now I’m one the [Glide’s Ambassadors](https://community.glideapps.com/t/become-a-glide-ambassador/40413), I’d like to ask for your thoughts, cuz more people think better than one smile I’m planning to [come back recording youtube videos](https://youtube.com/c/LucasPiresApps) to help Glide’s community common questions, or also advanced tips. I’d love to hear from you what you guys think it’s important/needed to record a video talking about, since simple or advanced tips, since relations until how to build a complex flow for their app/page. You can comment bellow, and I’ll not…

Oh, I was just trying to keep things more complicated than they need to be. 😉
