Hello everybody  
I’m dealing with glide here

My question arose with  
versions and rollbacks to the  
original version. I would like to  
have such a possibility, where  
to write?

Also observed errors with  
columns. I don’t understand  
how this happened when using  
the format of the relation  
column and specifying the  
value. The column displayed a  
value from another column. To  
fix this, I had to delete the tab  
in the table and copy the new  
one and transfer the data.  
There was no desire to  
communicate to those support  
in order to wait for a decision.  
Has anyone come across this?

Р.З. Sorry for your eyes) The

Translate. I think I will improve  
my English soon

This is not currently available, I’m not sure if Glide can do this for you if you contact support.

The relation column intends to show you that it finds something that matches what you try to “relate” to. It picks (seemingly) a random column from the target sheet and display them. I agree it might be confusing in some cases where it returns a column where you have no value, but if you want to target a specific column and use it, use a lookup on top of the relation.
