Hey!

I have a users table (Glide’s default one).  
In the layout manger, under the menu–\>user profile I set the source to be the users table… .  
but I still don’t have the “Values from user profile” in the component list…

Those values are only available in the Components list in the context of a form screen.

What are you trying to do?  
If you just want to use values from the User Profile row as display values in components, you can still do that.

That’s a Form Container, which is slightly different to a standard form. You can use User Profiles values in a Form Container via the “Additional Columns” section in the right hand panel.
