**I know you can do this through Spreadsheet Magic. But this is the Feature Request forum and I would love for Glide to have an option.** I would like to have the ability to limit my inline list to the last (n) entries. Together with SORT, this could be good to show the last **week** of events for example. Or the last 5 votes from a form. See this app and choose the “Latest” sort. [https://ojek4.glideapp.io](https://ojek4.glideapp.io) It will show ALL of them, but I would like to be able to tell Glide to take the last 5 while sorting the sheet by timestamp. So I did some Spreadsheet Magic to show the Last 5. (Choose that from the list) I have a mileage tracker app, and I have done the Spreadsheet Magic to get it to show the last week of my mileage entries. But I would prefer to be able to just say, show the last 10 entries or so in glide… ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/3/3907d8decb902c8e3134e2df2862fd9e95618c4b.png) ---

Or the first (n) number. 🙂 ---

Ha! Good point. I was figuring with the sorts the last and first would be reversed/interchangeable. Maybe? ---

Potentially. I was thinking of a situation with sorting alphabetically and displaying the first 5. Otherwise it would be sorted Z-A and showing the last 5 would be in. E, D, C, B, A order. ---

This gets me wondering if you could just a random ONE of the items in a list. Using the Sort (random) and just showing the ONE. (Again, I did it using spreadsheet magic here: [https://azm1b.glideapp.io](https://azm1b.glideapp.io) There is a button to Update the app, it only submits the timestamp to a sheet, thus choosing a different RANDOM verse from a list. ---

I’ve though a single list item combined with random sorting could make for a quick and dirty ad banner. ---
