New changes to block's header!

We’ve recently updated our block headers for a more simplified look. This article is designed to outline all the new behaviors. Introducing the Formula icon for hiding the formula bar! There is now an formula icon that can be used to hide and show the formula bar. Members can click the new formula icon to expand and collapse the formula bar. Also when using the drilldown options, Members can click on “Show/Hide formula breakdown” to expand and collapse the formula bar.We optimised the experience for each type of user. If the Member is considered a “modeller” (either have the ‘Can Configure Block’ or the ‘Can Open Block Explorer’) then the formula and the formula breakdown will be displayed by default. All remaining Members will be considered as “contributors” and the formula and formula breakdown won’t be displayed by default. All users have the ability to show/hide formulas.

Changes to Autosave in Sheet View and Blocks

Hello friends, On Friday April 14th, we will be making some changes to the Autosave functionality and the default Autosave behavior when inputting data in Sheet View. What is the “Autosave off” feature that will be released on April 14th? Now Members with Configure Blocks permission will have a block-level setting controlling Autosave. This setting is now available on all block types and determines if inputs within the block are automatically saved or not. While already existing, the Autosave functionality was changed to expand its functionality to Boards for all types of display modes and not only Sheet view, making it more accessible to Members inputting data on Boards. This change also enables the autosave setting to be consistent across users and views. How does this impact Sheet view? On April 14th, Sheet view’s default behavior will change from Autosave being off to Autosave being turned on. This means Members will no longer have to save inputs before they sync with the rest of
