Table View

Table view is the default and most flexible way to work with SmartTable data. It displays records as rows and fields as columns, similar to a spreadsheet, while supporting high-performance virtual scrolling and advanced layout options.

When to Use Table View

Use table view when you need to:

• Enter or edit many records at once.
• See a large number of fields side by side.
• Apply complex filters, sorts, and groupings.
• Freeze important columns while scrolling.

Sorting

• Click a column header to sort ascending or descending.
• Hold the sort indicator to add multi-column sorting.
• Drag sort indicators to change priority.

Filtering

• Click the filter icon in a column header for a quick filter.
• Open the view filter panel to add multiple conditions.
• Combine conditions with AND or OR logic.

Grouping

• Group records by one or more fields.
• Expand or collapse groups.
• Apply grouping up to 3 levels for nested summaries.

Freeze and Resize Columns

• Drag the column edge to adjust width; double-click to auto-fit.
• Freeze columns to keep them visible while scrolling horizontally.
• Show or hide fields per view without deleting them.
