You can also Ctrl or Command click to not open the right click menu and get the same effect.

Yep, but I almost don’t use it. I tried but I prefer right click

sorry if it’s been asked, but i can’t figure out how to change edit/delete conditions on an item. where does that control sit now?

110

Enabling Edit on an item should be the same.

However, I can’t seem to find the Delete option anymore. Enabling Delete underneath the Edit option seems to be missing in the new interface.

Yeah that’s fixed in staging but I definitely missed it for the current version in production

I’m loving the new look!

  1. Settings :+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1:
  2. Tables :+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1:
  3. Components should always be to the right. It’s a bit of a mess :+1:
  4. Styles is something we select once or at most twice (should have been to the left).:+1:
  5. Otherwise :+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1::+1:

Works fine for me now!

Just a little usability tweak for me would be the component + icon being held at the top of the menu, and the same for the tab + icon. Also the separator between the 2 sections could be a little more defined.

Would also be nice to insert a component in a specific place, but that is something else.

To me it would feel more logical to have it like this:

Left: tabs/components column
Middle: details of the selected component
Richt: preview app

Now I’m thinking we need old and new; just switch between them.

That’s not the idea is it :wink:

I’d prefer a layout like this for components, so I don’t have to jump left/right
I feel for the components tab now I’d want to shrink my screen, but for the data editor, I still want as wide as possible…
A popout data editor would also be awesome.

The previous Builder evolved organically over two years as we incrementally added each new feature. It was a strong design, but could not accommodate major new features we want to add:

  • tablet and web support
  • more powerful layout options (e.g. component groups)
  • data source management (e.g. connect to multiple sheets or third-party sources)

This transition will be a bit awkward and not obviously worthwhile immediately for everyone, but six months from now, as these new features compound, I believe Glide will feel improved 10x.

Good idea on both counts. Let me try to get that in for tuesday.

It clearly goes in a promising direction.

A simple feature for the short term would to find (back*) the ability to move sheets so that we can replicate the same order than G-Sheet or organize in the order that we want if we use Glide Tables.
