The left side of the ‘Actions’ screen is the library of Actions created and named. Simple request - the Action library should grouped by Table or at least the option the group by Table.
The presentation in the Actions within components is by Table associated with the screen - the library should mirror this presentation and present Table/Action(s).
Especially important when you have scores or hundreds of actions.

I’ve started naming my actions with table name included so they’ll sort alphabetically by table for now, but this would be great!

I do something similar to Megann. Right now my naming convention is:
Tab - Table - Main action (detail if needed)
This way actions are grouped by tab they are launched on, and I can see the table they run on (which is otherwise often cut off) and the main action.
I’m not really happy with this yet, but it’s getting better little by little.

Nathan, does this mean you have access to a library of all the actions you have created in a particular Glide project, or is it Global and any new project has access to apply them? I am not seeing where my library is located. I do see the 2 actions I have made on the component I am working on, but once I go to a new tab/sheet and I do not see how to access those previous actions.

It’s per App, and Actions are associated with Tables.
You will only see Custom Actions in the Actions editor. That is, if you add an action to a component without creating it as a custom action, you won’t see it in the Actions Editor, and it won’t be re-useable.

It moved right next to Layout
