Title says it, but I hope you’ll be able to add a way to sort a table view by clicking the field names.

Yes, very basic feature that is of big relevance to me as I’d like to use Fibery for much of what I used Excel, and was thinking about substituting with Coda - vendor lists, etc. that should be sortable, and I’d think a filter would belong also in a similar location as where you click to sort.

Hope that’s useful, thanks again guys!

Agree.

It feels weird to have a sorting menu at the top of the screen. Everyone is used to sorting tables by clicking on the column’s header.

The new Table View is a combination of Table and List ideas, so you can now create hierarchical tables, such as Projects → Tasks or Products → Features → Tasks. Today, all your tables look slightly different. What’s new in the new Table View?
