I had a simple idea of displaying a message to the customer, I used the HTML code to display the message, it can be typed directly into the cell or the way I did using the new column template options.

```
<html><h1><marquee><font color="#F5D0A9">Horário de atendimento das 08:00AM as 06:00PM</font></marquee><h1></html>

```

Sample Application: [https://2oxda.glideapp.io](https://2oxda.glideapp.io)

You can test these codes if you want.

```
<marquee direction = "up"> This text will scroll from bottom to top. </marquee>

<marquee direction = "down" width = "250" height = "200" behavior = "alternate" style = "border: solid">
   <marquee behavior = "alternate">
     This text will skip
   </marquee>
</marquee>
```

Your restaurant app is the best I’ve seen so far! Tryna copy it tbh lol but struggling with the coding stuff.

Glide need to hire or just copy your added features.
