Hi @Mark I think Increment Action does not work using an Action Text. Last night I tested it and nothing worked. Check it out please. Saludos ---

Hi @Robert_Petitto , I have a problem with this. I can’t make an increment with a formula data. Glide doesn’t show the possibility for a few days ago. The formula doesn’t appear in the drop-down menu “Increment by”. On older GLIDE, it shows a dash instead of the formula column math. Do you have the same problem? Thanks a lot, Laurent ---

Hi Laurent, I did not experience this myself because in my use case, I did not try to make an increment on a dependent column (as in Math, Template or If \> Then \> Else, which are dependent on the previously created columns). I think that might be the right logic though, an increment on those columns might break the link between those and their “parent” columns. Let’s say you have a Math Column which is a sum of column A and column B. Then you try to increase that by 1 using a button, what happens to the original relationship with column A and B? Same goes with Template and If \> Then \> Else. ---

I’m guessing you can only increment number columns…not template, math, if, etc. ---

[https://go.glideapps.com/app/vXhshRBY1oKPwfCSAjsz](https://go.glideapps.com/app/vXhshRBY1oKPwfCSAjsz) @Mark. Another weird increment bug. It looks like the column value is being cached incorrectly. When I attempt to +1 or -1 it doesn’t increment from the column value. Hard to explain…you have to see it for yourself: ---

I have exactly the same issue with -1 and +1action. I set up my buttons a few days ago and it worked like a charm. But when I tried again yesterday I had exactly the same issue as @Robert_Petitto mentionned . It seems like a sort of cache is causing the trouble. Tks ---

Robert, I am trying to figure out how you were able to navigate screens using the increment action, and I just can’t seem to do it. I watched a couple other tutorials as well, and they are not making sense. Can you point me to a “Navigation for Dummies” instruction on this if you know of one? Thanks ---

I’m not navigating screens, but I’m “navigating” between various elements of a particular sheet/screen. Increments increase/decrease a column value. If each of your rows has a value assigned (row number) then you can FILTER an inline list by the column that you’re incrementing. In my example above, I have a 5 columns of data. That data is assigned a number. I’m then controlling the VISIBILITY of that data using the increment feature (if Number = 1, show text 1…etc.) ---
