On the [Glideapps.com](http://Glideapps.com) homepage, one of the featured videos shows an interface that I can’t figure out how to build. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/a/ea8a78f32d1fa5be8255c3fa0bfd700b289d2d57.jpeg) What’s the secret to having more than 3 columns, and the ability for that row/record to have an action (all i need is view detail). 3 columns for anything besides a data grid is a significant limitation. So unless datagrid will allow collection item level actions, I can’t think of a way to achieve this showcased design. ---

Hola! Is this one? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/c/a/cac387311e59e8901dbe7ce5b880653ea0e13a3a.png) if so, what you need to use is a Data Grid component (collection). Saludos… ---

Nope, that’s just the datagrid. Notice in my screenshot that it has action buttons inline. That’s not possible in the datagrid. ---

Well, my datagrid has its own action button as well ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/6/8/68c291bc799f1b19438e3f63aeda25aa1e6cfabe.png) I still don’t see the “false marketing” 🥴 ---

You can’t add actions to individual rows in the data grid. The marketing is not showing the same data grid that we have today. ---

> [@Joe\_Corr](#): > > yikes! false marketing! losing trust… This component will be part of a larger release of new components sometime next calendar year (I’ve seen the concepts…they’re beautiful). Might need to wait a few more months though. Just speculation. ---

No, that’s an action button for the whole table, not inline buttons for each row as they show in the marketing.
