I have a screen displaying a list of `Restaurants`, in the details view I have a toggle `switch` mapped to `View info?` column which sets it to `true/false`

I have a visibility condition to display and hide based on `View info?` for various components.

The issue is that when one user has switch to false, it replicates across all other users and vice-versa.

Since this is a “public” sheet viewed by everyone this isn’t working as desired.

are there any other options to hide/unhide the components?

Would it work with a true/false attached to a user-specific column? Users have to login if that works, but I don’t think there’s a workaround.

I get your logic, but how do I write to a user-specific column, I can’t see the `user` on the list to write the true/false value to from the Restaurant details view

I attach a video, hope it can help.

Basically create a new boolean user-specific column in the Data Editor, then link it with your switch. Tell me if it works as intended.
